The power of art and the vitality of the culture of Florence, from distant times, have such an energy to expand with force almost all over Tuscany. There is an area in particular that shows signs of that flourishing city and is the Florentine area, a territory that preserves wonderful Medici villas and UNESCO heritage, unique castles, abbeys, enchanted woods, delightful hills and precious museums. It is not by chance that the Renaissance ring passes through these lands, a hug around Florence that welcomes different places, an itinerary to follow on foot or by bike through landscapes made to art.

The capital is notoriously a treasure chest of priceless treasures, which are not exhausted in the majestic Renaissance works, but you can breathe in all the museum spaces, in the gardens, in the small squares, in contemporary art exhibitions and in the many festivals that animate the city throughout the year. Diving into the Uffizi and the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo is one of the most beautiful experiences to live if you are passionate about art and a walk to Giadino di Boboli is a continuous discovery, among fountains, sculptures and tree-lined avenues.

On the traces of the great legacies of the past, in this circular journey, it is impossible not to pass through Vaglia and its Medici Park of Pratolino (one of the most beautiful English gardens in Tuscany), as well as Lastra a Signa, in which Villa Bellosguardo and the museum to Enrico Caruso stand out. Also visit Figline and Incisa, an area that has fascinated artists and poets and finally do not miss Calenzano and Pontassieve.

This is also a territory of a nature that knows how to live perfectly with the works of man. Destination for those who love peace and rest is definitely Vallombrosa, the woods of Reggello destination for all Florentines looking for refreshment in the summer season. The centuries-old trees of this forest alternate to welcome, after a pleasant walk, the sumptuous and famous Abbey. Equally to appreciate the hilly landscapes of Rufina, land of vineyards; the hill of Fiesole, which, just above Florence, preserves a magnificent theater of Roman times; or Londa, with its lake in the green.

The skilled hands give terracotta treasures to Impruneta and Signa weave elegant straw hats. Florentine craftsmanship, in general, the whole world knows: leather goods, gold, wood are shaped with exciting perfection.

  Book A Villa In Florence And Discover This Stunning Museum

This week we have already looked at Arezzo, a city of gold and a place in which goldsmithing has gone on from the Etruscans to the present day. Workshops of artisans still dot the medieval core of the city and thousands of jewellery and gold businesses operate throughout the surrounding area. Museums display incredible works from throughout history and shops sell the latest iterations to the magpies among those on vacation in Tuscany who are after rather more special and precious souvenirs. There is also a roaring trade in both jewellery and artisanal goods to appreciate if you have found a luxury villa in Florence, nearby. However, the birthplace of the Renaissance is, in its own right, one giant jewellery box full of incredible gems from architectural masterpieces to museums stuffed with incredible works of art to churches painted and gilded meticulously. And, among all of the stunning buildings and institutions filled with astounding things made by human hands, one of the lesser-known but most extraordinary has to be the Opificio delle Pietre Dure.

The Opificio delle Pietre Dure, literally meaning the Workshop of Semi-Precious Stones, is an institution run by the Italian Ministry for Cultural Heritage that is based on Via degli Alfani, not far from the Cathedral or the Galleria dell’Accademia, in the centre of Florence. In addition to the museum that most visitors head to, the building is also home to one of two Italian state-run conservation schools (the other being the Istituto Superiore per la Conservazione ed il Restauro), a specialist library, an archive, and a scientific laboratory in which research into the latest and best preventive and conservation techniques is undertaken. A global leader in the field of restoration, the institution is also home, as one might imagine, to a wonderful collection of well-preserved and incredible objects.

Is Spring a good time of year to go to Tuscany?

Spring (March to May) is an excellent time of year to visit for those interested in fewer crowds, smaller queues for things, milder weather, abundant greenery, and lower prices. From March onwards, the weather gets more reliable and temperatures increase. There is some chance of snow, but not that much of a chance, and rain is to be expected some days but you can also expect up to 12 hours of sunlight by the end of the month and average maximum temperatures of 15°C. By April, the countryside is lush and filled with flowers and fruit trees in bloom. The average maximum temperature rises to 19°C, though cooler days are common and evenings are brisk with a low of around 9°C to be expected. Come May, things are getting busier and this is one of the most popular months to visit Tuscany. Temperatures can reach 24°C or more in some parts of the region, rain is uncommon, and there are over 15 hours of daylight.

  Must-Try Cakes From Tuscany

Foodies flock to Tuscany year in, year out to enjoy her hearty and tasty cuisine. With roots in peasant cooking, it is a cuisine that makes the most of local ingredients to create something filling and comforting. It is mostly pasta, pizza and other savoury delights, however, that people are most familiar with and are most keen to enjoy. Tuscany's desserts are less well-loved and well-known internationally but, despite this, there are plenty of delicious treats that you should try while holidaying in the region. We have rounded up some of the best cakes that can be found in Tuscany so you can track them down after you've finished with the main courses.

1. Schiacciata alla Fiorentina

One particularly tasty example is Schiacciata alla Fiorentina. This is a very traditional Florentine cake which can be found in local pasticceria (pastry shops) all over the city.
