  • Breathtaking!
    By bethingtown, 05/26/08
    Wow....you cant imagine how profound this experiance is until you actually walk up to this masterpiece! You will find it hard to walk away from. I suggest going later in the day to avoid crowds.

  • Number one attraction in town
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/03/07
    The art is superb. Don't miss it! Make a reservation for sure. You will still need to wait in line for a while. Show up on time, not much earlier.
    If you are only in town for a day, make sure it's a day that they are open.

  • David
    By aussie2liz, 09/30/07
    Do not be surprised - the main (practically only) attraction here is David and that's what people pay to see. Everything else is pretty much thrown in as a second thought. I did enjoy the room that has original casts of statues dating back 100s of years. Do not get there more than 20 minutes before your entry time. Otherwise you'll be standing in line waiting for your group to be called.

  • compare this
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/21/07
    Unbelievable you can see in David the veins, the muscles, the detail is fabulous. How can you compare this to ponte vecchio? This has to be number 1 in Florence.

  • Wow!
    By bargerbecky, 07/31/07
    The statue of David is worth the visit! Don't be confused by the copy in the square. Get reservations before you go! We went kind of late in the day.

  • Accademia
    By soup_74, 09/28/06
    Seeing Michelangelo's David was amazing but seeing in so many other pictures and travel books that it took some of the magnificence away. What blew me away the most was the hallway leading up to David. Seeing all the unfinished boulders that Michelangelo had used in previous sculptures was really cool to see. It was really worth seeing and if I could would go back to see it again.

    I really enjoyed this museum. the main attraction is David, but there were also many other interesting pieces of art. to avoid waiting in lines, make a reservation. it makes it a lot easier.

  • The "David" is breathtaking
    By Linda W, 09/16/05
    The statue of "David" by Michaelangelo is the most important piece and the best at the Accademia. The lighting complements the magnificent statue. The rest of the works are very good but "The David" is worth the trip by itself.

  • Il Duomo
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/28/05
    Il Duomo in Florence was spectacular. The cathedral is gorgeous with the pink, white, and emerald granite stone it is made out of. The view from on top the dome of the Cathedral is unbelievable, and worth the 200 or 500 or so steps it takes to get up there.

  • two days and one night of good life
    By andreea_butunoi, 07/26/05
    i didn't like yhat a had to stay just 2 days in Firenze . I realised that everything is caracterised by high quality. How big is their faith in God and Saint Mary that they could build the Dome and those churches?it's a city with great culture, as the whole Italy and i can't wait to get back!
