One of the three main squares in the city center, Palazzo Vecchio is the jackpot for free outdoor art in Florence where you can view both originals and replicas of some of the most famous art sculptures in history, such as Michelangelo’s David and Cellini’s Perseus. And guess what! Rick Steves has a free audio guide for this too 😉

**Tip: right behind the big water fountain there is a free water bottle refill station! The water is very clean, so carry a water bottle around in your bag to fill it up here throughout the day.
