Florence on Christmas
Hi there,
I am planning to be in Florence on Christmas Eve and Christmas (Dec 24th and Dec 25th). I heard that the place is completely dead, buses and trains stop operating, museums and tourist sites are closed, shops and restaurants are also closed. * Is this true? * Is there anything that can be done in Florence on these 2 days? * Is the picture different on Dec 24th and Dec 25th? * Is it better to be in Rome than Florence on Dec 25th? Thanks in advance, Abhinav |

Florence on Christmas
Last time I spent Christmas in Florence it was bitterly cold and damn
near everything was closed. Finally I got pizza in a rackety teen hangout near the Duomo. I was fleeing a large Italian family gathering in Rome. Big mistake; I should have just hidden from family somewhere in Rome....at least Romans don't all close everything down..and it is generally warmer. bill In article , Abh Khush wrote: Hi there, I am planning to be in Florence on Christmas Eve and Christmas (Dec 24th and Dec 25th).
