Oltrarno, Florence

The bohemian Oltrarno area lies across the river Arno from the famous Duomo. It’s quieter here with a real local free, but with lot’s to see and do.

It’s well worth taking a walk to the Piazzale Michelangelo, where you’ll find some of the best views over the city. Here you can decide what you most want to see and do in Oltrarno. Amazing frescos in the Palazzo Pitti? An espresso at the Piazza Santo Spirito? Or a stroll across the Ponte Vecchio bridge to discover more of the ancient centre.
