Piazzale Michelangelo sunset

Every travel writer has told you to go here, which is why you're skeptical, which is why you should go anyway. The view — Florence below, the Duomo, the Arno, the hills — is the one that changes how you see the city. Walk up from San Niccolò about 30 minutes before sunset; the kiosk sells a serviceable Aperol Spritz. Combine with San Miniato vespers above for an unbeatable hour and a half.
