florence | day and night.



Our next stop on the Italian voyage was Florence. I quickly realized why this charming city is such a traveler's favorite in Tuscany. Florence peaked in the Renaissance and hasn't come down since. We spent most every day simply wandering the streets and admiring the art + architecture, gelato in hand. 


    
    

{The city revolves around the main centre: Duomo, Baptistry and Campanile.}


{Pleasant greeting each morning.}



{Chicness in a castle.}


{Gelato on every corner.}


{The result of a very difficult flavor decision: Tiramisu.}


{After a dauntingly narrow and terrifying climb to the top of the Duomo, the view was worth it.} 


{The Boboli Gardens}



{Ponte Vecchio.}


{A very pleasant surprise: our rented apartment had a rooftop terrace with a breathtaking 360 view.}


{Goodnight Florence.}
