The sights of Florence
The museums, monuments, churches, palazzi and other sights in Florence
You can choose to peruse the sights along whatever sort of criteria you like: Top sights, Reid's List (my own faves), various Top 10 lists, or by neighborhood or category (church, museum, etc.). (A cheat sheet is below.)
About the star ratings
I've rated every sight and experience from zero to three stars. It's not that no-star sights aren't worth the bother.
In fact, in any other city they'd probably rank much higher. They're just cursed to be in Florence, competing for your precious vacation time alongside the Uffizi, the Duomo, and Michelangelo's David—all solid three-stars.
This is a purely subjective rating, but it will help you get a sense of which sights pack the highest wow factor—and where to spend your time. In fact, you could view the starts thusly:
- Anything rated three stars you should try to see even if you only have one day in Florence.
- With two days, you can try to pack in as many two-starred sights as well.
- With three or four days, you'll have time to fit in some one-star sights around the edges of your sightseeing schedule.
- If you're lucky enough to be in town for more than four days, you might take the time to visit some of the no-starred sights.
