Florence by night

We arrived in Florence in early afternoon and walked along the river to go to our hotel. We were so tired that we decided to rest before exploring the city. We enjoyed a nice and fresh "vino bianco" on our room balcony (no view from the balcony). In the evening we wandered to the city center, our first sight of Florence was at night. The pictures are not great but I didn't have a tripod...

Stunning panoramic view of the city from Piazzale Michelangelo: The Palazzo Vecchio:

basilica Santa Croce:

Arno river:

Ponte Vecchio: the oldest surviving bridge in the city!
