9. city life
One of the greatest art
and architecture cities in
the world, Florence is the
cradle of Renaissance.
But is way more beyond
that - it is a vibrant city
filled with masterpieces,
classical and contem-
porary art, restaurants,
nightlife, craft shops and
a magnificent spirit.

11. The use of shutters is
important for the smooth
running of Italian life. All
buildings within the city
are historical, therefore
under the code of Belle
Arti, the shutters in Flor-
ence and Tuscany can
only be dark brown,
black, dark grey or dark
green.

12. Italian food is famous, but what is
interesting is that each region has
its own speciality. Florence has a
medieval history that influences the
traditional Florentine and Tuscan
cuisine. Another factor are the local
ingredients. Tuscan food is based
on the Italian idea of cucina povera
or “poor cooking.”
