a million inhabitants, spreads on the banks of the Arno, between the Adriatic
and the Tyrrhenian seas, almost in the middle of the Italian peninsula. It is a city which bustles with industry and craft, commerce and culture, art and science.
Being on the main national railway lines, it is easily accessible from most important places both in Italy and abroad. The Florence "Vespucci" airport, where both national and international airlines stop, is located 5 Km. from the city centre.The main motorway, A1, connects Florence with Bologna and Milano in the North
