Absolute must on any trip. It gives any porcelain lover a great picture of what development of an industry was. Though it is hard to go to the top don't discard this destination at the visit of Palazzo Pitty

What ever you do don't go to the cafe at Pitti Palace. A capucino costs 6,50 euro and brioche are poor quality and very expensive

This gallery is a change of pace from the crowds of the Ufizzi and Academia. While I'm no art expert, the palazzo offered some beautiful paintings,frescos and sculpted ceilings. Highly recommend it!

There are some fabulous art works here, but the rooms are huge and crammed with paintings, so much so that some are barely visible. Another problem is the lighting which in many rooms reflects off the paintings so you cannot see the details. A lot...More
