A journey through time on the water: Ponte Vecchio.
Ponte Vecchio (Italian for old bridge) is the oldest bridge in Florence. It dates back to Roman times, but the bridge gained its current structure in the Middle Ages. The small shops lining the bridge that were once used as workshops are now used to sell a broad range of jewellery. Tip: the best place to take the most beautiful photos of the Ponte Vecchio is from the neighbouring Ponte Santa Trinita.
