The beating heart of the city's political life since the 14th century, photogenic Piazza della Signoria is lined by modern cafes and packed with Renaissance sculptures. This lively L-shaped square is named after the massive Romanesque fortress-palace that overlooks it. A favorite meeting place of Florentines, the square is like an open-air museum of art with its numerous statues, including a copy of Michelangelo's sculpture of David. An ornate fountain features a large figure of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. The square serves as a gateway to the Uffizi Gallery, which displays more of the city's art.

Beautiful square with the bars and restaurants and many statues. The statue of David (copy) is in the square and together with the fountain it creates a charming atmosphere. We were lucky to enjoy the concert of a classical musical right at the square at night and it was amazing experience. There are also other enlightened statues around to admire also with the possibility of entering the hall.

Beautiful square with with extraordinary and detailed sculptures and with a beautiful fountain. There are cozy restaurants around to sit and enjoy the beauty. You can also sit at the stairs with a snack and take a break from your walk. The buildings are very strong and powerful and give you a feeling of being back in time in the past. The square is very spacious and is a must visit!

Beautiful square with outstanding and intricate sculptures and a lovely fountain. There are a number of quiet eateries around where you can sit and take in the scenery. You can also take a break from your trek by sitting on the stairwell with a snack. The structures are massive and imposing, giving you the impression of being transported back in time. The square is large and inviting, and it is a must-see!

Even just for a replica, the statue of David are amazing! Very crowded by tourists, but you must come here while you are in Florence! Many statues for you to view, some of them dated 2000 years old! We are stepping back in time!
