Cross Piazza della Repubblica, built over Florence's old Roman forum. Linger by the arcaded cafes and the carousel before continuing to the next square on your route.
Full description
Piazza della Repubblica occupies the site of Florence's Roman forum and is now a broad, open square lined with grand arcades and well-known cafes with literary associations. A carousel adds a lighter note to the setting, and the square is open at all hours, making it equally easy to pass through by day or in the evening.
It is free and needs only about twenty minutes, usually as a pause between larger sights. Couples and casual strollers tend to enjoy the atmosphere, particularly in the early evening when the cafes fill up.
