Italy - Florence - Tourists in Piazza della Signoria

Above tourists from south Asia, we see Michelangelo's David, Baccio Bandinelli's Hercules & Cacus and Benvenuto Cellini's Perseus with the Head of Medusa statues stand in Piazza della Signoria, beneath the fortress palace Palazzo Vecchio. Piazza della Signoria is an L-shaped square in front of the Palazzo Vecchio ("Old Palace") which is the town hall of the city. This massive, Romanesque, crenulated fortress-palace is among the most impressive town halls of Tuscany. Overlooking the square with its copy of Michelangelo's David statue as well the gallery of statues in the adjacent Loggia dei Lanzi, it is one of the most significant public places in Italy, and it host cultural points and museums.
