Discovering Santo Spirito and Oltrarno in Florence
Oltrarno is one of Florence’s most evocative traditional neighborhoods. Aside from housing incredible landmarks like the Pitti Palace, Boboli Gardens, Spirito Church, and Brancacci Chapels, it’s where most artisan workshops are located and offers a variety of charming trattorias, bars, and quaint shops. Walking through the cobble-paved streets and picturesque alleys is like journeying back in time. In the evening, Oltrarno turns into a vibrant meeting place for people of all ages.
