Firenze

Giotto's tower as seen from below
The centerpiece of Europe for the Renaissance, Florence  birthed and fostered an immeasurable amount of influence over the arts and sciences for centuries. 
Florence parallels Rome in the amount of historical architectual that builds the framework of the present-day city. It's easier to imagine oneself walking through the same alleyways or into the same church.
Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore
The beautiful green and white marble patterns of the magnificent cathedral creates awe differently than the complex designs of the gothic fascade.
Unexpected changing of the guards ceremony
Scattered sculptural programs for the masses
운진 and I headed to an open market to tastes some fine cheeses and cured meat. 
Easter parade. Bulls are big
There's endless exploration available in beautiful Florence. The city keeps the historical core intact and timeless.
