Zoom walk around Florence
On 14 October 2021
Anna Piperato guided us around many of the main sites of Florence, on a live zoom walk. Starting at San Lorenzo to learn about the Medici family. Then towards the Duomo and the Baptistry Campanile - and that famous dome.
Heading down the Via dei Calzaiuoli (bonus points if you can pronounce It). We marvelled at the sculptures at the Orsanmichele before arriving in Piazza della Signoria (where a copy of Michelangelo’s ‘David’ guards the entrance to the Town Hall). Passing underneath the Uffizi Gallery before finishing with a beautiful view of the River Arno and Ponte Vecchio. It was a superb morning.
For those of you who don’t know Anna she is a registered guide, passionate and contagious and a very knowledgable young woman. She grew up in the USA and studied Art History in New York and Manchester. Now living in Siena sharing her love for Italy.
