Florence is considered the “cradle of the Renaissance” – great scholars, artists, and poets lived and worked here: Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Dante, Galileo… Historians still cannot explain how this small Tuscan city produced dozens of geniuses and pioneers in different fields within a single century. Perhaps it is thanks to the special spirit and atmosphere that literally hangs in the air, inspiring creative people? The famous art historian Giorgio Vasari believed it was all about competition: the more talented people there are around you, the more you want to stand out and create something special.

Well, perhaps he was right, because centuries later Florence continues to give the world artistic geniuses, from fashion designers to acclaimed actors. The city’s stunning architecture probably plays no small part in this – even today it looks like a set from a historical film. Dozens of world-famous museums and galleries hold priceless masterpieces by Botticelli, Titian, Raphael, Rubens, Caravaggio, da Vinci, and Michelangelo… It feels as though people here absorb a love of beauty and a desire to make the world better from their earliest childhood!
