Museum of Opera of Saint Maria of Fiore, Florence

An amazing portal into the past - we loved the entire exhibition. There’s a lot to see and you can take a nice photo of the dome from the top floor. Make sure you go through all the rooms - even though we followed the directions, we still found rooms that we didn’t check out, after circling around again. Buy the full ticket to check out other places too - way cheaper than paying for every place separately. Other than the exhibition - the place wasn’t crowded, there’s a nice souvenir shop, it’s cool inside (which was great compared to the outside heat), and it has clean toilets.

A large collection of statues, the doors were also very fascinating to look at in detail. Not too crowded, was able to go at my own pace without being disturbed. The directions of the museum are not organized at all. They use a room numbering system, but the order was very difficult to follow, and some exhibits were closed, and would cause you to have to skip between floors and rooms.
