The focal point of the Renaissance, Florence is also a bustling modern city, a heady mix of classic and contemporary. Written by locals, Time Out Florence guides visitors through both aspects of the city. Here are Florence and Tuscany’s best accommodations and dining options in every budget, with tips on buying wine and visiting local vineyards. Mini-guides, including street maps, direct visitors through nearby towns like Pisa, Siena, Arezzo, and Lucca. Museums and galleries, along with new building projects such as a high-speed train link and a new exit to the Uffizi, are detailed, along with the unusual satellite town, Firenze Nova, that Florence is building from scratch. This edition features new sidebars, photographs, and listings; updated maps; and a new culture chapter for context.
