Spanning the Arno river in the heart of the city, the 14th-century bridge features a wide, three-arch design supporting a series of historic shop fronts. Stroll the bridge's thoroughfare to peruse shops or see street performances. Visit the secret Vasari Corridor that stretches across the bridge to connect two Renaissance palaces. Antique jewelry enthusiasts may want to keep an eye out for the area's gold and silversmith shops.

Nice place, but wow, so crowded! First time here in 25 years, and the place is overrun. Great history--just wish there were fewer people.

A perfect place to spend your evening walk. It looks amazing during sunset and if you stay a bit longer magic continues when city lights up. A must place to visit when you visit Florence. Bridge is lined with many jewel shops as well which is dates back to historical times.

It’s one of the most visited touristic areas in Florence, the old bridge over the Arno River has a beautiful view for the sunset. There are many jewelry, art and souvenir shops. There are also many restaurants, ice cream shops and pastry shops. The whole area is very lively. I highly recommend visiting it.
