6 . Top attractions in Florence
One of the wealthiest cities during the Italian Renaissance, Florence is home to classical works of art, historic architecture and natural beauty. Here are the top 4 attractions in Florence.
♦ Duomo—Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore
ADDRESS: Piazza del Duomo, 50122 Firenze
PHONE: +39-55-2302885
Florence's most popular site is Duomo(cathedral). Construction of the Duomo began in 1296. Inside the Duomo, there are dozens of paintings and sculptures of great historical and cultural significance, so give yourself some time to take it all in. The main attraction of this massive structure is Brunelleschi's Dome, a masterpiece of architecture. You'll definitely want to buy a ticket to climb the 463 steps to its top.
♦ Galleria degli Uffizi
ADDRESS: Piazzale degli Uffizi, 6, 50122 Firenze
PHONE: +39-55-2388651
The Galleria degli Uffizi holds the world’s most important collection of Renaissance art, as well as thousands of paintings from medieval to modern times. Artists whose works you'll see include Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Perugino, and Raphael. Having all these artists' works in one place means you'll want to allow plenty of time to fully appreciate all of them. The Uffizi is Italy's most crowded museum so it's a good idea to buy tickets ahead to avoid long ticket lines.
♦ Campanile—Bell Tower
ADDRESS: Piazza del Duomo, 50122 Firenze
PHONE: +39-55-2302885
Construction of the Campanile (Italian for “hell tower”) began in 1334. Inside the Campanile are detailed relief carvings and sculptures. If you climb the 414 stairs (there's no elevator in this Gothic tower), you'll be rewarded not only with great views of the Cathedral and its dome hut of Florence and the surrounding area.
♦ Ponte Vecchio
ADDRESS: Ponte Vecchio, 50125 Firenze
PHONE: +39-55-294290
The Ponte Vecchio (old bridge), built in 1345, was Florence's first bridge across the Arno River. It is the only surviving bridge from Florence's medieval days (others were destroyed in World War II). The always crowded Fonte Vecchio is still lined with shops selling gold and silver jewelry. From the bridge, you’ll have a great view of the Arno River and beyond.

10 . Splash (落水声)! Did you hear that? Can you guess what it is? Can you figure it out? If you guessed the ocean, then you’re correct! I believe that my organization, Reef Check, is the most worthy of receiving the Chocolate Heart money. Do you want to know why? Well, soon you’ll find out.
First of all, Reef Check needs the money to repair and clean coral reefs (珊瑚礁) which are home to millions of sea animals. Reef Check hopes to educate the public about the value of reef ecosystems (生态系统) and the danger that sea animals and plants are facing. Based in Los Angeles, Reef Check has volunteer teams in more than 90 countries, making community volunteers, businesses, universities, and other non-profit organizations work together. It works to create a worldwide network of volunteer teams trained in Reef Check’s scientific methods that survey coral and rocky reefs and report on reef health. Also, Reef Check takes action to protect remaining ancient reefs and repair reefs in danger worldwide.
For example, imagine you are a poor sea animal, whose home just got destroyed or wasn’t clean. What would you do? What could you do? Nothing much, really. But that’s exactly Reef Check’s job! To clean and protect these homes for many sea animals!
Furthermore, in 1997, Reef Check carried out the first-ever survey of coral reef health that provided scientific evidence that our coral reefs were in danger because of overfishing, illegal fishing, and pollution. The results surprised many biologists who had not realized the seriousness of human influence on reefs. In August 2002, Reef Check presented its report, The Global Coral Reef Crisis - Trends and Solutions, at the World Summit in South Africa. The report warned that there was no reef in the world that remained untouched by human influence, such as overfishing, pollution, and climate change.
In short, everyone should have a home including animals from the sea. So don’t leave them out! Be generous and give them a home!
