The Piazzale Michelangelo is one of the most beautiful places to visit in
Florence Italy. Perched high on a hillside overlooking the city,
visitors can enjoy a breathtaking view of Florence's skyline. A
replica of Michelangelo's Statue of David stands in the centre of the plaza.
A number of other attractions can be found in the
Piazzale Michelangelo District. Just
a short walk uphill is the spectacular Romaneque
San Miniato Church. An equally short walk down the hill leads
to another piazza with a lovely restaurant. Further down, on the
route back to central Florence, is a very pretty rose garden.
