Firenca je rodno mesto re - nesanse i muzej na otvore - nom. Poznata je i po svojoj jednostavnoj, ali neverovat - noj kuhinji. Iako je glavni grad Toskane manje očigledan kao krajnja stanica od Rima ili Venecije, to je četvrto naj - popularnije odredište u zem - lji i definitivno je ne treba pro - pustiti. Dakle, hajde da navedemo bar neke divne stvari po koji - ma je Firenca poznata. Samo pazite na simptome Stenda - lovog (Firentinskog) sindro - ma; lepota grada je toliko ne - odoljiva da se nekim ljudima vrti u glavi, pa čak i halucini - raju! – Prekjuče, kad sam se spu - štao s Apenina i približavao Firenci, srce mi je snažno lu - palo. Kakva detinjarija! Naj - Čuvajte se F irentinskog sindroma

How chil- dish. Finally, at a turn in the Watch out for Florence syndrome

I said to myself: There had li- ved Dante, Michelangelo, Leo- nardo da Vinci! There is the noble city, queen of the Midd- le Ages! It was within those walls that civilisation was con- ceived anew.” (From the writin- gs of Stendhal describing the symptoms of “Florence syn- drome”) Florence Cathedral Beauty and monumentality aren’t the only reasons why Florence Cathedral (Santa Ma- ria del Fiore, or simply Duo- mo) is the city’s ultimate icon. A self-supporting dome li- ke this hadn’t been built since Antiquity, because the tech- nique had been lost. This en- gineering breakthrough was a major symbol of the transi - tion from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance (and the mo- dern era). Upon its completion
