If one city could be said to embody the essence of Italy it would be Florence, the first capital of the country when it was united. What makes Florence pivotal to the culture not just of Italy but of the whole of Europe, is the Renaissance. Every eminent artistic figure of this extraordinary era - Giotto, Masaccio, Bruneleschi, Alberti, Donatello, Botticelli, Da Vinci and Michelangelo - is represented here, in an unrivalled concentration of churches, galleries and museums, and the imprint of their work is visible at almost every turn. Florence can often seem too popular for its own good, with immense queues for the Uffizi and too many menu turistico restaurants. But if you time your visit carefully, don't rush around trying to see everything, and make a point of eating and drinking in our recommended establishments, you'll have a visit you'll never forget.
