Porta Romana is one of the best-preserved monumental gates of Florence’s ancient city walls. Built in 1328, it was the main entrance for travelers arriving from Siena and Rome. Today it still impresses with its massive towers, marble coats of arms, and the authentic atmosphere of the Oltrarno district, a less crowded and more genuine part of the city. A perfect stop to discover a quieter, historic side of Florence comfortably by golf cart.

The Convent of San Matteo in Arcetri is a peaceful historic monastery nestled in the Florentine hills, just outside the city center. Founded in the 14th century, it was home to cloistered Dominican nuns and later became closely connected to the final years of Galileo Galilei, who lived nearby.
