Studying abroad in Florence, Italy, has been a dream come true, full of vibrant culture and rich history. One of the highlights of my program was a city walk to Piazzale Michelangelo.
The start of the tour consisted with our program leader taking us around the city. We strolled through cobblestone streets, past the majestic Duomo and the Ponte Vecchio. The climb to Piazzale Michelangelo was filled with anticipation. After getting through the city and crossing the river and finally getting to steps to start the walk up, we were full of excitement.
Upon reaching the piazza, we were greeted by a stunning panoramic view of Florence. The red-tiled rooftops, the winding Arno River, and iconic landmarks like the Duomo and Palazzo Vecchio created a breathtaking scene.
