Special Easter holidays in Florence staying a boutique hotel steps away from the Duomo square to look at La Scoppio del Carro<\/strong><\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

During Easter time<\/strong> the Spring is in the air and you can breathe in the atmosphere of renewal and rebirth, as the city experiences a joyful excitement in its streets, squares, gardens and panoramic terraces.<\/p>\n

The heart of the Florentine life in the Easter period is the Duomo di Santa Maria del Fiore, a few steps away from our hotel<\/strong>, where for 350 years, on Easter Sunday, the occasion is marked by an event that best represents the history and tradition of Florence: the explosion of the cart. \u201cThe Explosion of the Cart<\/strong>\u201d is a folk tradition of Florence. Each Easter Sunday, a cart, packed with fireworks and other pyrotechnics is lit and provides an unforgettable spectacle in the civic life of the city.<\/p>\n

\"Easter<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s ceremony is very close to those of the past and the rituals are unchanged: the historic procession with the antique costumes<\/strong> flows through the streets of the city with musicians, flag weavers and figures that represent the Florentine dominion, highlighted by the decorated float named the \u201cBrindellone<\/strong>\u201d, forming towers two -three floors high , pulled by two oxen adorned with garlands, and the newly blessed fire<\/strong> that will ignite the fireworks<\/strong> placed in the wagon for a crackling and colourful fireworks display. All to the amazement and joyful participation of the audience gathered in the Piazza del Duomo to witness the spectacle.<\/p>\n

\"easter<\/p>\n

The explosion of the cart is definitely the most symbolic event of the Florentine Easter , but Florence at Easter<\/strong> presents many other inspirations and experiences: a jaunt in the Cascine Park<\/strong>, the green heart of Florence; a walk around the Rose Garden<\/strong>, just below the panoramic terrace of Piazzale Michelangelo , and a visit to discover the spectacular architecture of the Palazzo Pitti<\/strong> with its romantic Boboli Gardens and finally an excursion on the Florentine hills<\/strong> walking or biking, for a healthy day after the delicious taste of the Tuscan cuisine<\/strong> with \u201ccrostini\u201d, \u201cpappardelle\u201d, Florentine steak and a strong sweetness of the \u201cschiacciata\u201d.<\/p>\n
