Tourists who appreciate the architectural and cultural heritage of their chosen destinations often face the problem that the sights are located too far from each other. This forces foreigners to spend a lot of time, money, and effort to see all the sights.

However, there is an incredible city in Europe where the main tourist locations are located within a 10-minute walk. According to Tourlane experts, Florence is the most pedestrian-friendly city in the world, allowing tourists to avoid the need for transportation, as Express writes.

Travelers have the opportunity to visit almost all the iconic sights in a day. Florence can be visited at any time of the year, but in winter, the trip will be even more enjoyable due to the comfortable temperature in Italy.

You should start the tour from the Ponte Vecchio Bridge, which is located in the narrowest part of the Arno River. This incredible structure is considered a symbol of the city.

Continuing your walk, you can visit the Uffizi Gallery, which houses works by prominent artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Botticelli. It is located just a two-minute walk from the bridge.

Next, tourists should visit Florence's main square, the Piazza della Signoria, where they can spend hours admiring statues, the Fountain of Neptune, and more.

After walking about six minutes from there, travelers come across the incredible Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral, which is the third-largest church in the world.
