About Galleria degli Uffizi

You recognize The Birth of Venus and Primavera before you reach the rooms. Seeing Botticelli in person lets you notice what the reproduction in your textbook squeezed out. The Uffizi also holds works by Leonardo and ancient sculptures spread along the corridors.

Go in with a few chosen interests and accept that you won't exhaust the collection. The suggested time is for a selective route; a deeper visit takes longer. The standard ticket should not be confused with options that add the Vasari Corridor, whose visit requires specific planning.
