Florence, the Renaissance city

View of Ponte Vecchio

The famous Ponte Vecchio (“Old Bridge”), over the Arno river, lined with gold-and silversmith shops, as seen from the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. Built in 1345, this structure with three stone arches replaced a wooden bridge which had crossed the Arno River at this spot since Roman times. The upper side of the bridge, known as the Vasariano corridor, was designed by Vasari to link the Palazzo Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery to the Pitti Palace; today it is an art gallery.
