Other walks close to Santa Maria Novella.

Sorted by distance from the start of santa maria novella: the facade and the old pharmacy. Good for stitching together a longer day.

Florence's grandest street, the Strozzi rusticated block, and a bridge that was rebuilt stone by stone.

The Oltrarno's grand street of antiquari, a graffito-faced palace, and the quiet church by the bridge.

A Moorish dome over a working neighbourhood, the buried ghetto, and the kosher streets near Sant'Ambrogio.

The Medici's own church, a cast-iron food hall, and the street-market grid that wraps them both.
