Came for the legendary views of the Tuscan hills around Florence and was treated to an amazing stormy view of the whole valley after a
great Aperol spritz and crostini w/anchovies, capers, and black olives. Friendly staff and lovely location designed by none other than Michelangelo himself — how can you go wrong?

Crossing the Arno and walking up the hill to this place was a perfect break from the crowds. I did not climb the Duomo or the Giotto bell tower so I can’t compare, but the view from here was marvelous and I enjoyed the residential setting. The HUMAN — ANTONY GORMLEY exhibit was taking place and I recommend it if you are looking for a slower-pace time away from the hustle and bustle. In addition to the view, the sculptures were thought provoking and whimsical.
I just read that Kim and Kanye were married here last year, so apparently I’m not the alone in appreciating the view and 16^th century ambiance.
[A caution: the ground is very uneven and the entry is steep and without stairs. I recommend you wear stiff-soled shoes.]

Super point de vue sur tout Florence ! L’ascension vers ce paysage panoramique vaut le coup !
Je recommande en ce moment l’exposition de Antony Gormley — Human qui est un peu dérangeante mais très intéressante et révèle des aspects de ce lieu historique.
Évitez dans la mesure du possible d’y aller aux heures les plus chaudes car il y a peu d’ombré.

The most peculiar part of the Forte Belvedere visit is the fact that it seems that is not located in a city like Florence, but in the countryside surrounded by hills and olive trees. The panorama is absolutely stunning, and it’s worth a trip if the day is nice AND if you have seen more important views and museums already.
