    Hiking

    San Giovanni is the historic center of the city.

    In the middle is Santa Maria del Fiore, the cathedral of Florence. The church tower or campanile by Giotto, decorated with green, white and pink marble, rises 85 meters into the air.

    The nearby Baptistery of San Giovanni was supposedly built in the 4th century, making it one of the oldest buildings in the city. The dome above the baptismal font (where Dante was baptized, among others) is artfully decorated with beautiful mosaics from the 13th century.
