Meet Michelangelo's 'David'

One of the must-visit places in Florence is the Accademia Gallery, where the original masterpiece 'David' by Michelangelo is displayed! Standing at an impressive height of 5.17 meters, this marble sculpture is truly breathtaking. From the detailed muscles, the tension in the fingertips, to the piercing gaze when viewed head-on—every aspect exudes divine artistry. Many visitors are surprised by how deeply moved they are by this sculpture. Though compact, the gallery is packed with remarkable exhibits! Take your time to admire Michelangelo's unfinished sculptures 'Prisoners,' Renaissance paintings, and for music enthusiasts, the display of Stradivarius instruments is a treat. This space feels like a small treasure chest of art, encompassing paintings, sculptures, and music✨ With 1.5 to 1.7 million visitors annually, this popular Florence spot requires reservations◎ Location📍: Via Ricasoli, 58/60, 50129 Firenze FI, Italy Hours🕒: 8:15 AM–6:50 PM (Last entry at 6:20 PM / Closed Mondays) Admission💰: €16 (on-site purchase) / €20 (online reservation)
