Florence
Ah, the magic of summer evenings! Those moments that seem suspended in time and leave indescribable memories. Florence seems to dance ethereally on pastel colors, emptied of daily traffic, tuned only to the beautiful sound of laughter from young people who frequent the city squares, animating the churchyards and streets.
Florence is truly a privilege and a great fortune to be able to enjoy.
What to do on summer nights in the city? Follow us for some advice!
Florentine summer: an endless program of events and activities
Once again this year, the Florentine Summer program (which you can consult here!) has some wonderful surprises in store. Not only the historic center, but also the neighborhoods and outlying areas are lit up with initiatives, colors, and events that span the entire contemporary cultural landscape.
Every day is a party, you could say: with open-air cinema arenas, literary festivals, and music festivals, Florence confirms its status as a great open-air stage where you can enjoy sharing and interacting with some of the most important international artists and performers.
Here are some tempting suggestions for your summer in the city: cinema
If you love cinema under the stars, the summer months will invite you to discover new releases or timeless classics in restored versions thanks to some evocative locations that, during the hottest days of the year, are transformed into charming and romantic auditoriums for die-hard film buffs.
The charm of villages...by moonlight
Did you know that in the surroundings of Florence, just a few kilometers from the city center, there are magical farmhouses and agritourism establishments that, during the summer evenings, can be the perfect location for a romantic dinner for two or a get-together with your closest friends and travel companions?
Between tastings, farm visits, golf games, or swimming in the pool, all you have to do is relax and enjoy the experience in nature. From Palazzo Castri, you can set off for one of the enchanting, scenic hillside areas of the Florentine countryside. It will be the perfect opportunity to discover all the secrets of the historic villages and medieval hamlets of Tuscany. A unique opportunity to return home enriched with knowledge and new experiences.
A romantic dinner... with a view of the Ponte Vecchio:
And if, after a day spent admiring the artistic and architectural wonders of the city, you don't feel like straying too far from the hotel but still want to enjoy the open air, we recommend stopping for a drink or a delicious dinner in one of the typical restaurants in one of the charming neighborhoods of central Florence, such as the historic San Lorenzo or the unique Santo Spirito.
Here you will find excellent trattorias tucked away in hidden squares or alleys far from the chaos of cars and honking horns, where quality and price resist the fads of the moment.
These are authentic places, symbols of a city that knows how to preserve its most genuine and authentic corners. These are unmissable opportunities to experience the thrill of becoming... Florentine for a night!
