Florence, the capital of Tuscany, offers bits and pieces of everything travelers love about Italy as a whole. Art lovers will find some of the most well-known Renaissance architecture including the Duomo Cathedral, paintings from Sandro Botticelli and Leonardo Da Vinci and, of course, Michaelangelo's iconic David. Likewise, foodies and oenophiles will find antipasti, traditional pane (bread), pappardelle (long, wide pasta) and rich reds from nearby Chianti. With stunning sights and gastronomic indulgences around every bend, romance is — no surprise here — also at a premium. Whether you're traveling on business, taking the kiddos on their first European trip or looking for an intimate hideaway for your honeymoon, you'll find something favorable on this list.
