The Palazzo Vecchio is a stunning highlight of Florence. Its grand halls, especially the Salone dei Cinquecento, are filled with impressive art and history that bring the Renaissance to life. Exploring the Medici rooms and hidden passages feels like stepping back in time, and the tower climb offers one of the best views in the city. Beautiful, atmospheric, and unforgettable — a must-visit for anyone in Florence.
