Piazza della Signoria & Palazzo Vecchio

There are 5 images in this gallery.

Walking around the Piazza della Signoria, was equal parts thrilling and disappointing. I was thrilled to be in such a famous location, especially when little snow flurries fluttered about! However, I was terribly disappointed that 'David' was hidden away behind a screen, under restoration! Thankfully, the original was on glorious display in the Accademia!
