To enjoy the elevated beauty of Florence, drive to the Oltrarno district and then along the five mile, tree-lined boulevard called Viale dei Colli until you reach Piazzale Michelangelo. Michelangelo Square has offered breathtaking, panoramic views since the lookout was built in 1869. Among the landmarks to admire are Cathedral of Florence (right), Palazzo Vecchio Tower (left) and the hills of Settignano and Fiesole.
