Welcome to Florence!I wish you a pleasant stay in our city. It belongs to us all because it’s a world heritage site. Make yourselves at home and love it. Firenze, the city of the fleur-de-lis, the cradle of the Renaissance. Let everyday be a renaissance for Florence. Let’s discover the talent and creativity that made this city so glorious and which still continues to flourish today. We have freed important spots from traffic and handed them back to locals and visitors alike: Piazza Duomo, Piazza Pitti, Via Tornabuoni. You can cross the historic centre in fifteen minutes: walking is good for you and, looking up, enjoy the surrounding beauty at the same time. The Firenze Card was introduced in 2011, allowing you to visit 50 museums at leisure, avoiding the queues and having to make reservations, as well as unlimited use of the buses. We have provided a wonderful new home to Maggio Musicale Fiorentino by opening the new Opera House. 2012 is the year of Amerigo, a chance not only to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the death of Vespucci but above all “to name the future”. We have inaugurated a new exhibition area in the Palazzo Vecchio museum with a new section called “Traces of Florence”. This November returns the International Forum on Culture and Environment Heritage, Florens, that contributes to create the idea we have of Florence as a lively and dynamic city in the international culture and economy, not just as an extraordinary museum in the open. And while we are enthusiastically working for the biggest sport event that Florence has ever hosted, the World Road Championships of 2013. We are preparing this year once again for the Florence Marathon, another beautiful day of sport for the Florentines and the thousands of participants coming to the city. I hope that you can get a taste of all this and that you long to come back.You’ll always be welcome. Feel free to write to me at: [email protected]
