As you leave Palazzo Vecchio, there are many more spots in plain eyesight that most tourists either don’t see or have a very vague idea about, all of them located in Piazza della Signoria. One of them is more obvious: of course, I’m talking about Loggia dei Lanzi, also known as Loggia della Signoria. Created as a place for public assemblies, today it is a great free attraction for those who want to explore some ancient statues (and others, more “modern”, i.e. dating back to the Renaissance… you get what “modern” means in Italy, right?) closely.
