The birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, Florence's history dates back to pre-Roman civilizations. Visit the beautiful domed cathedral, known simply as the Duomo, and its nearby Giotto's Bell Tower and the Baptistery of St. John. With its phenomenal art collection spanning centuries, a visit to the Uffizi Gallery is a must, as well as Accademia dell'Arte del Disegno housing Michelangelo's David. Browse the many shops and stalls at the Ponte Vecchio, where you can purchase fine Italian leather goods and other souvenirs. 1-800-340-8612
