Ponte Vecchio, 50125 Firenze FI, Italy
Great place to see the view of the river from both sides and the landscape. Also has an amazing selection of jewellery shops on the bridge to window shop at. It's full of people but best time to go is around sunset as you will not be disappointed with the scenery.
This is an old market place which today sells gold, I Jewelry and luxury brands like Rolex, Cartier etc. While most of us may not be able to afford these brands, you can definitely afford the stupendous view from the bridge which is free. One can spend time here and just walk along the river, maybe grab a coffee or a bite to eat at one of the cafes.
Cannot be missed if you enjoy art! We were extremely lucky to be in Florence when the gallery had a nocturnal opening for €1 entry fee because of the European Cultural Heritage weekend. The timeless pieces are beautiful and definitely worth seeing in person.
Great place to visit and a must, Iconic view from any angle. We'll worth a visit anytime of the year. It rained the day we crossed and it was still an amazing day with friends and family
Ponte Vecchio bridge is a pedestrian walkway with jewelry shops on both sides. The bridge itself is not long with gaps between some stores to allow for a breathtaking view of the river below and the roads running along both sides. Overall a great experience especially since you don't have to plan to visit this location - you'd just path through it when you're out for a walk and then realize its purpose.
