Recognizable as one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the world, Florence is both the capital city and cultural heart of Tuscany. It was home to some of the world's greatest artists and the works that survive them - many of which are now preserved in museums such as the Accademia di Belle Arti and the Uffizi Gallery.
