February 22, 2011
Culture Week 2011 falls in April this year, very close to the Easter Vacations!
What is the week of culture? It is a very important event involving all the State Museums with specials and free tickets access. Here in Florence you can visit: the Uffizi Gallery, Academy Museum, Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens, Bargello Museum, Medici Chapels, and many other attractions. All of them free of charge!
Is is possible to get tickets in advance? Yes of course! You can use the online booking service available on the Official state museums web site or if you’re a guest at Mr My Resort Inn we’ll do that for you (no credit card needed). If you intend to pre-book your tickets to avoid the long lines, then you will pay just for the pre-booking service, which is a great advantage.
What are you waiting for? Florence is so sweet in April and you will have a very good time here. Walking in the city of the Renaissance will be the most exciting experience ever, admiring the David, watch the city lights from the Ponte Vecchio… In addiction, you can’t miss the opportunity to spend a vacation at Mr My Resort Inn during the free entrance week to the main museums in the city center!
You can also think about the possibility to take a daily trip to Pisa or Siena and visit their museums, since this event is valid for all the State Museums in Italy.
Book your room at Mr My Resort, and we’ll do your Culture Week 2011 special!

This year Easter falls on Sunday April 24th, and on that day there is the most special event of Easter week in Florence: the explosion of the cart “scoppio del carro” in the Duomo square. If this is your first time in Florence you can’t miss it!
This is an old popular and religious tradition ending in fireworks, meaning a peaceful and rich year for the city of Florence. All locals are used to go to the Piazza del Duomo to see this spectacular tradition attracting also many tourists.
**During Easter week all museums and shops are regulary open. Shops will be closed just on Sunday Easter Day, but Uffizi, Academy, Pitti Palace, etc. are open 8-15am – 6.50pm as usual (always better to pre-book your museum tickets! If you’re a guest of Mr My Resort you can ask us to book the tickets for you in advance without additional costs).
**Restaurants: open all days, as usual. The tradition here in Italy says that you must spend the Pasquetta Day on April 25th outside the city, together with your family, and with a pic-nic set to enjoy traditional Easter food in the countryside, parks, green areas. Easter day is usually at home or at the restaurant, and many menu include lamb, spinach, boiled eggs, chocolate cakes decorated with Spring flowers or simple home-made cakes with almonds and organge flowers essence.
