Florence & Countryside Local
Covering almost 400 acres, this park is Florence’s main green lung. It’s the perfect place to walk, jog, or run and breathe in some fresh air. It’s the largest park in Florence and was once a farm belonging to the Medici family. Simply follow the river bank on the west side of the city to enjoy a stroll with nice views. There’s also a large weekly market in the park every Tuesday.
