Catering Ottawa
If you are hoping to enjoy culture, galleries and museums in a beautiful city on your next holiday, your first choice of destination should be Florence.
Few cities in the world have as many galleries as Florence and there is arguably nowhere that can boast as many important artworks.
Book into a self-catering property in Tuscany and you will have the ideal base from which to explore the city and see cultural attractions such as Michelangelo's David, Da Vinci's The Adoration of the Magi and Botticelli's The Birth of Venus.
The most famous of Florence's galleries is the Uffizi, which has an unrivalled collection of works by Italy's greatest artists, such as Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Botticelli, Duccio, Titian, Raphael and Caravaggio.
You may want to schedule more than one visit to the beautiful building to ensure you have time to enjoy the full splendour of its exhibits, which also include pieces from non-Italian painters such as Van Rijn and Durer.
After visiting the Uffizi, you are sure to want to take a trip to the gallery at the Accademia di Belle Arti. The exhibition at the drawing school includes Michelangelo's David, one of the world's most-recognisable artworks.
It is also worth making time to see the Palazzo Pitti, one of the grandest museums in Europe. The Renaissance palace once belonged to the Medici family, one of the most powerful dynasties in Italian history and patrons to artists including Da Vinci.
The palace now houses a gallery with more than 500 works by leading Renaissance painters, together with a collection of pieces by Macchiaioli artists, a silver museum and a group of apartments showing how Italian royals used to live.
Rent a holiday villa in Italy and you will also have the opportunity to visit the Museo di Storia Naturale di Firenze. The museum has a vast collection of fossils and zoological specimens, together with an exhibition of anthropological items.
The natural history museum will also allow you to enjoy the sunshine and soaring temperatures Tuscany is famous for, as you can spend a few hours exploring the huge variety of plants in its beautiful botanic gardens.
Invitation to Tuscany is the place to go if you want to rent a holiday villa in Italy for your next break. Whether you are planning a relaxing holiday in the Italian countryside or a busy schedule of sightseeing in Florence, Invitation to Tuscany can help you to find the right self-catering property in Tuscany.
