Tram-e d'arte. Florence by tram

With the arrival of the tramway the center of Florence has expanded its beauty beyond the area where once the ancient walls were. To raise awareness and enhance this wealth, the Tram-e-d’Arte,Florence by tram project is born, a new, sustainable and conscious way to experience Florence and its less known but fascinating face, as well as its more contemporary side, too often overlooked and which is instead becoming more and more characteristic of the city.

For each stop, the site www.tramedartefirenze.it collects the places of interest within about 1.5 km (about 20 minutes on foot), then also divided into 5 categories: Top Attractions, Museums and Churches, Parks and Sports , Shows and Culture, Shops and Markets. By creating new itineraries both for those people who live in these neighborhoods, those who pass through them for work and those who visit the city and want to get out of the more usual tourist circuits.

More than 200 small and large destinations, such as the Russian Orthodox Church of the Nativity, the first in Italy, the Villa Medicea di Careggi where Lorenzo il Magnifico died, but also entertainment and cultural centers such as the Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and the Manifattura Tabacchi, the majestic Palazzo di Giustizia in Novoli area, the extraordinary Stibbert Museum, or even ancient churches where can be find precious and unexpected works of art, magnificent parks and street art masterpieces by some of the best known urban artists, but also sports centers, universities and Natural Shopping Centers.

In addition to this, an Events and News section, dedicated to the unmissable events along the tramway artery.

Guided tours are also planned so as to discover the most fascinating places, moving between the various tramway stops.
