Don't Miss This Side of Florence 🇮🇹

Said to be the funky sibling of the historic centre of Florence, the Oltrarno’s densely packed streets are lined with restaurants, cafes, shops, churches, palaces, museums and gardens! Today, we will walk to the neighbourhood's most famous landmarks and show you how to navigate your way around the other side of the Arno river, beginning at Ponte Vecchio. Oltrarno Florence Travel Guide w/ @momentswithmicha The Arno River divides Florence’s historic centre from its vibrant neighbourhood on its southern banks. The Oltrano, literally meaning ‘the other side of the Arno’, started out as a small unprotected settlement, however, over time it grew into one of the more affluent areas where nobles built their palaces. The Oltrarno district is made up of the neighbourhoods of San Niccolò, Santo Spirito, and San Frediano!
