Day 9 was a very rainy day. We started the day with a visit to the Mercato Centrale. Was expecting it to be similar to Queen Victoria Market but it was a bit quieter than expected. Initially thought of having breakfast there but found the prices to be on the higher side, which was unexpected.





Left after exploring around, and find breakfast at the other option. Unfortunately, the cafe seemed to have closed and we walked up and down the same street, failing to locate it. So we moved on with the plan and to find food along the way.



Basilica of Santa Maria Novella


Long queue even in the rain to visit.





Crossed the Ponte Santa Trinita to get the view of the iconic Ponte Vecchio.




Had breakfast at a nearby cafe and take a break from the rain.


More photos of the iconic bridge after breakfast.











Palazzo Pitti











Torre del Belvedere






Otw up Piazzale Michelangelo.








At the viewing deck.










Chiesa di San Salvatore al Monte





Forte San Miniato











Giardino delle Rose



Short lunch break at Vivaldi.






Basilica di Santa Croce di Firenze










Piazza della Signoria





Long queue to go in to see the original but we're good with the replica outside lol.













To be continued in the next post!
