1 Day in Florence? Here's How to Spend It

Leather shopping

Grab gifts for friends and family (or yourself) at the can't-miss Mercato del Porcellino, full of quality Italian leather bags, jackets, wallets, and just about everything under the sun. Try for bargaining luck at the popular bronze boar fountain on the side of the building. Tradition has it that if you toss a coin into the boar's mouth and it lands on the drain, you'll be back in Florence someday.
