Florence, Italy
Rome always gets the credit for being Italy’s most stunning and historic city. But it can’t compete with Florence for its pure Italian beauty. Florence’s museums, churches, and palaces are home to some of the most artistic treasures worldwide.
The skyline-dominating cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is a can’t-miss. And the museums and galleries where the absence of mile-long lines misrepresents the presence of some of the most famous works of the Italian masters, especially Michelangelo’s iconic David.
This Must-See picturesque place’s most popular and influential sites include the Cathedral, the Uffizi, the Baptistery, and the Bargello.
The churches of Santa Croce and Santa Maria Novella are gorgeous art galleries, and the library of San Lorenzo is a glorious exhibition of Michelangelo’s architectural intellect. Pitti Palace houses extensive and varied art collections.
And we recommend spending a day at Boboli Garden and climbing the hills to the church of San Miniato al Monte to get an exquisite view of Florence. At night, tourists can take a leisurely stroll and pass by some wonderful cathedrals and piazzas.
If you’re an art lover and want to admire the majestic beauty of art and sculpture, then this Must-See picturesque place is the ideal holiday destination to add to your travel bucket list.

Another neat city to add to a bucket list is Sibiu, Romania.
I am thrilled to see that I have been to all of these cities!! In fact. I am a native of Charleston, SC so I can definitely attest to the beauty of it…unbiased, of course.
