Ponte Vecchio (Ponte Vecchio, old bridge) is the famous bridge in Florence, located at the narrowest point of the Arno River, almost opposite the Uffizi Gallery. This is the oldest bridge in the city: it was built in 1345 by the architect Neri di Fioravanti and has retained its original appearance to this day. Initially, there were butcher shops; and above the buildings is the Vasari Corridor, named after the architect who created it specifically so that Cosimo I could safely pass from the Palazzo Vecchio to the Palazzo Pitti, and today there are jewelry stores and souvenir sellers. And ordinary people go : -)
