THE WANDERING NEST FAMILY, ABOUT US

Gate of Republic Square Piazza della Repubblica in Florence and Antica Giostra carousel, famous old town in the city center of Florence, Carousel Horses in Piazza della Repubblica in Florence in Tuscany

Florence is the capital city of the region of Tuscany in Central Italy. It is also the most populated city in Tuscany, with 360,930 inhabitants in 2023, and 984,991 in its metropolitan area.

Piazza della Repubblica è una piazza del centro storico di Firenze di forma rettangolare grande circa 75 m per 100 m. È il risultato più conosciuto dell'epoca del "Risanamento", quando fu ridefinita l'urbanistica della città in seguito all'insediamento della capitale del Regno d'Italia a Firenze (dal 1865 al 1871). Si accede alla piazza da via degli Speziali, Calimala, via Pellicceria, via degli Strozzi, via dei Brunelleschi o via Roma (dove è il canto dei Dadaioli, dal nome dei giocatori di dadi della bische nel Ghetto).
