The old Palace on Piazza della Signoria, one of the main attractions of Florence. A spectacular facade with battlements and coats of arms, a tall tower, a beautiful courtyard with painted ceilings, luxurious halls that embodied the power of a mighty and proud republic. Next to the entrance from the square is a copy of Michelangelo's David. It once stood here, and the original stood right in the same place. But to keep it safe, it should be moved to the Academy Museum. In short, Florence without the Palazzo Vecchio is not Florence.

As for the tower... the main hall impresses with its beauty, breadth and height. It feels like many years ago people were giants and they needed huge tall palaces.…

One of the most beautiful buildings in Piazza della Signoria! There is a museum in Palazzio that must be visited! There is also a copy of the statue of David at the entrance... but you need to look at it at the Academy -the original will leave an unforgettable impression - the genius of Michelangelo is majestic!!! And there is also the Ufizzi Museum nearby with many masterpieces by Italian masters!!!

An incredibly inspiring and art-rich place. It's just the quintessence of sculptural masterpieces in the public domain.

To call it BEAUTIFUL is to say nothing. Sometimes I look at sculptures and wonder WHAT KIND OF MACHINE DID IT? Well, it's not possible to create IT with your hands. It's made of marble. But it is not homogeneous and breaks off, crumbling with cracks and streaks. Well how? Pay attention to the Lion. Here he is definitely "molded" by his hands... crookedly obliquely with streaks glued together. And look at the Abduction of the Sabine woman... a marble sculpture and it was made in 1583. Kaaaaaak?
