STREETS OF FLORENCE

Look that tiny balcony over that fountain... Amaizing!!! 

Lucky people who owns it!!!

Do you wanna know where it is???

GIARDINO DELLA GHERARDESCA

The "Giardino della Gherardesca" is the biggest private park of Florence (4,5 hectares) and now it is property of the Four Seasons Hotels Firenze.

For this reason it is open only for the guests of the hotel.

But once a year the Four Season organize an open day for charity and the money collected are devolved to the kids of the "Istituto degli Innocenti" of Florence.

I went there and I took some pics of the gardens... wich are breathtaking.

FOGGY FLORENCE

The fog has dressed up Florence in these days.

It is breathtaking isn'it??

***Thanks to Simone Razzino for the photo***

PIAZZA DEL CAMPO, SIENA

It seems that finally spring is coming in Tuscany.

This is Piazza del Campo in Siena, one of the 100 most beautiful squares in Italy.

When you're in Florence take the chance to get here for a half day trip. Busitalia has a ride every 30/40 minutes from Florence to Siena at the cost of €15,60 both ways!

THE PALAZZO PANDOLFINI

Palazzo Pandolfini

Walking in the streets of Florence some Latin inscriptions on the ledge near the roof of a building caught my attention. 

I inquiered and found out that it was the Palazzo Pandolfini. 

Palazzo Pandolfini - Florence, Italy

It was build around year 1520 by Raphael Sanzio and was the residence of bishop Giannozzo Pandolfini and after hi death of Ferdinando Pandolfini.

Palazzo Pandolfini - Firenze

The decoration of the ledge was an initiative of Ferdinando with an inscription dedicated to Leone X and Clemente VII, in gratitude for the many favors received by the two Medici's popes.

The garden, for excample, was enriched with staues and fountaines donated by Pope Leone X.

The access inside the palace is really hard as it is privately held
