Piazza della Signoria
AttractionFlorenceAbout 25 minutes
Florence's civic square, open-air sculpture gallery and the front door of the Palazzo Vecchio. The Loggia dei Lanzi on one side holds real Renaissance sculpture that anyone can walk up to for free, including Cellini's Perseus. Crossed constantly; worth ten minutes standing still.
