Then, the places to be seen include Giotto’s Bell Tower, once used to summon the public to parliament; Piazza della Signoria, which was Florence’s political and social center for centuries and also houses Michelangelo’s famous statue of David; and the Old Bridge (Ponte Vecchio), famous for its antique and jewelry shops.
