Palazzo Rucellai is a palace from the 15th century, believed by most scholars to have been designed for Giovanni di Paolo Rucellai by Leon Battista Alberti between 1446 and 1451 and executed, at least in part, by Bernardo Rossellino. Its splendid facade was one of the first to proclaim the new ideas of Renaissance architecture based on the use of pilasters and entablatures in proportional relationship to each other. The Rucellai Palace demonstrates the impact of the ancient revival but does so in a manner which is full of Renaissance originality.

Palazzo Strozzi is one of the best-known Italian Renaissance palaces. Of imposing size (15 buildings were destroyed to make room for it), it is located between the homonymous Via Strozzi and Piazza Strozzi, and Via Tornabuoni, with three identical portals on every side.

The Basilica of Santa Trinita is one of the most important basilicas in the historical-artistic evolution of the city of Florence; according to Florentine usage, which reflects the Latin pronunciation of the nominative, it has the characteristic sdrucciola pronunciation (Trìnita). It overlooks the homonymous Piazza Santa Trinita and also gives its name to the nearby Santa Trinita bridge. We will enter inside to see the impressive frescoes by Ghirlandaio.

The Santa Trìnita bridge is another historical bridge over the Arno, which unites the historic center with the Oltrarno district, in particular connecting via de' Tornabuoni with Piazza de' Frescobaldi.

This lovely antique shopping street is the main avenue in the Oltrarno district used by the Medicis to reach Florence city center from Pitti Palace.

Palazzo Pitti is an imposing Renaissance palace in Florence. It is located in the Oltrarno area, a short distance from Ponte Vecchio. The original nucleus of the building dates back to 1458, as the urban residence of the banker Luca Pitti. The palace was then purchased by the Medici family in 1549 and became the main residence of the grand dukes of Tuscany, first Medici and from 1737 Habsburg-Lorraine. Following the unification of Italy, it played the role of royal palace for the House of Savoy in the five years in which Florence was the capital of the Kingdom of Italy (1865-70).

Ponte Vecchio is a historic bridge over the Arno River. The bridge connects via Por Santa Maria to via de' Guicciardini. The name was given to what was the oldest Florentine bridge when the Carraia bridge was built, then called "Ponte Nuovo". Beyond its historical value, the bridge has played a central role in the city's road system over time, starting from when an older bridge (or nearby) connected Roman Florentia with the Via Cassia Nuova commissioned by Emperor Hadrian in 123 AC.

The Vasari corridor is an elevated path that connects Palazzo Vecchio with Palazzo Pitti, passing through the Uffizi and over Ponte Vecchio. The idea of ​​the elevated route was born to give the grand dukes the opportunity to move freely and without danger from their residence to the government palace, given the still uncertain support of the population towards the new duke and the new government system, after the ancient Florentine Republic.

The Loggia dei Lanzi, also known as Loggia della Signoria, is a structure that stands next to the Uffizi Gallery in Piazza della Signoria. It is made up of large arches that face the roadway. With Corinthian capitals, the arches are supported by a cluster of pilasters. Because the Florentine patrons found the wide arches so appealing, Michelangelo suggested encircling Piazza della Signoria with them.

Florence's town hall is called Palazzo Vecchio, or "Old Palace". It looks over Piazza della Signoria, as well as the nearby Loggia dei Lanzi's statue gallery. This building was originally known as Palazzo della Signoria, however, due to the palace's varied uses over the course of its lengthy history, its name changed many times (Palazzo del Popolo, Palazzo dei Priori and Palazzo Ducale). After the Medici duke's home was relocated inside Palazzo Pitti across the Arno River, the structure was given its current name.

Piazza della Signoria is the main square of Florence, seat of civil power and heart of the city's social life. It is located in the central part of medieval Florence, south of the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. In the past it has taken on various names, such as Piazza dei Priori or Piazza del Granduca.
