Florence is a European city full of history.

This is the core area of ??the ancient Holy Roman Empire, leaving behind a large number of powerful ancient European ruins and becoming a popular tourist destination.

Here is a detailed strategy for you.

The mall, about an hour's drive from the city center, is a famous outlet in Italy and even Europe.

The most cost-effective one is Prada Gucci, which has great discounts.

Especially in Florence, as the birthplace of Gucci, you can sometimes buy Gucci T-shirts for as low as a dozen euros.

In addition to shopping, I highly recommend the GUCCI restaurant here. The exquisite cuisine and environment will definitely not let you down!

In addition, BV sunglasses and belts, Burberry scarves and windbreakers are hot-selling items, and many brand discount stores such as Coach, Tods, Lanvin, Diesel, and Balenciaga are worth choosing.

Many shop assistants provide Chinese-speaking services, and there are no obstacles to purchasing and tax refunds.

The only thing you need to worry about is the size of your wallet and box.

Space: Prada Factory Store This space is a shopping mall around Florence, where the Prada and Miumiu factories are located, where there are also car shoes and church decks.

The products here are quite complete, and if you are lucky, you can find seasonal products.

During the discount season in January and July every year, the discounts here are astonishingly high, making it a great place to enjoy shopping.

The most recommended brand is prada.

Here you can buy the most cost-effective Prada products.

Basically the wallet is 150-200 euros.

The clerk will give you a number when you enter, and everything you want will be recorded by this number.

It is recommended to go in the morning.

Supplies will be plentiful in the morning or late afternoon.

If you are lucky, you may encounter a restock.

EATALY: EATALY, a one-stop gourmet shopping place, is located next to Notre Dame degli Fiore Cathedral. It is known as the "world's first slow food supermarket" and integrates food purchasing, tasting, and cooking learning.

Various Italian delicacies will make you realize the meaning of "Italy is delicious"!

If you have a picky eye, there are food and wine recommendations in the wine and beer selection and tasting and recipe packs.

For example, the fruity and floral AstiGalarej (serves 2 cups, 50 euros) has an aftertaste of strawberry after drinking.

In addition, if you want to give it as a gift, it is also very suitable to come with a set of three bottles of Baroli (120 euros), which was known as the king of wine in 2000.

In addition, various pastas, recipe packs, small bottles of craft beer, Venchi chocolate and small bottles of tuna sauce are also worth buying.

SMN: An ancient and popular drug store, SMN (Santa Maria Novella) has a long history dating back to the 13th century. At that time, it was a drug store specializing in manufacturing cosmetics, daily necessities and medicines for the Medici family.

The brand specializes in skin care products and cosmetics made from pure natural plants. The preparation process is also very rigorous, continuing the traditional craftsmanship of monks.

The decoration and lighting in the store create a strong European palace retro atmosphere.

The store clerk is also very professional and will introduce you to different products.

I recommend SMN’s marigold cream and rose water, both of which are their star products and worth buying!

This is not a leather market weekend antiques fair.

The markets in Florence can be roughly divided into two types.

One is the leather flea market that is often mentioned in travel books and is held every day.

The two most famous are Piazza San Lorenzo and the Plaza Mayor, where the replica of David is located.

The market mainly focuses on leather goods and travel souvenirs, but people often feel that the quality of the products is insufficient, so it is not recommended.

Another weekend antique second-hand market worth visiting!

The locations of the weekend markets vary every month or so, and you can arrange them according to your own itinerary.

During the first week, the Sunday market is held in the suburban town of Fiso, overlooking the city.

During the second week, the Saturday and Sunday markets are held in Piazza Santo Spirito, near the Ponte Vecchio bridge.

The two-day market on the third weekend is the largest, focusing on antique furniture and decorations, and is held in a small park outside Fortezza da Basso in the city.

The Sunday market of the fourth week is located in piazzadeicompi, not far from the Cathedral of Fiore.

There are also several small antique grocery stores that you can take a look around.
