Piazzale Michelangelo
Coming from Firenze city center one just have to cross one of the bridges over the Arno River and take a short walk up to Piazzale Michelangelo – you will be rewared with the most spectacular view over Florence.
Built in 1869 on a hill at the south bank of the river by Guiseppe Poggi. At this time Florence was the capital of Italy and tried to renew the city neighbourhoods ( “Risanamento”). Riverside walkways (“Lungarni”) and broader streets (like the french boulevard) were built along the Arno – and a square with panoramic terraces dedicated to Michelangelo.

il mare
It still feels like summer here – I can´t imagine how cold it will be when I´m back in Vienna this night. But these neapoletan late summer days are the perfect for spending a day on and in the sea. Who wouldn´t take a swim in that turquoise-blue water?
As we all know not everyone is granted with save travels on the sea. Please support those (private) vessels Sea-Watch, MOAS (Migrant offshore aid station) and Mercyships (doctors without frontiers) in saving lifes!
