Walk along the other, quieter side of the Arno River to reach Piazzale Michelangelo. The easy walk along the river soon turns into quite a hike. With each progressing step, you get tired but are more than compensated with the beautiful views of Florence. For those who want to skip the hike, there are frequent buses running to the top from the city centre. Once you reach the top, your heart will definitely skip a beat looking at the panoramic view of Florence. This is ‘the square’, Piazza della Signoria, which has a bronze replica of Michelangelo's David, and is always abuzz with tourists and street vendors. Plan your journey in a way that you can watch the sunset here, which is something you simply won’t want to miss. The place will be crowded, so be in time to find a suitable spot to enjoy the stunning sunset view.
