twice or even three times during your
stay in Florence is highly recommended. In fact, we'll go on record to say that limiting
yourself to a mere mornin g - as many visitors do - could almost be described as crimin-
ally negligent. Chock-full of Renaissance masterpieces, this Medici-built palace is home to
major works by Giotto, Botticelli, Michelangelo, da Vinci, Raphael, Titian and Caravaggio,
and is one of only a few cultural institutions in the world that deserves a life-long program
of revisits.
