There is nice church and an old abbey around there. Great views of Florence and Arno river. If only city authorities removed those fake bags and other crap sellers, they spoil the expirience.

Its at he top of the hill outside florence..go early to watch sun setting view of florence...the food and service is perfect....
Took bus #12 up to the piazza. It gives you a setting for a wonderful picture before sunset in Florence. Must do in Florence.

If you want to see the whole of Firenze spread out below , the climb the thousands of steps to Piazzale Michelangleo. Or take the bus. We climbed the steps! good for the waistline, but hard work!

The sunset trip to the Piazzale was amazing! It was a photographers dream!
The restaurant was such a disappointment...very expensive and the most boring "American" menu. Not Italian at all. I had a wonderful meal here with my kids back in 1998. Spagehetti and meatballs....margarita pizza? My goddaughter and I got up and left before the waiter came to setup....

We got here via the open top City Sightseeing bus. All three routes stop here and pass at least one every 15 minutes. Superb views over the city and refreshments available when you get there.
You can take bus or cab there - and then walk down. A view you don't want to miss. Stop at the gardens on your way down.
