Florence, Rome & Paris
Consider the legacies of the Renaissance and Enlightenment in the cities where the movements took root.
In Florence and Rome, compare Da Vinci, Michelangelo and Galileo's critical roles during the Renaissance, or "rebirth," of art, science and culture. And in Paris, experience the cafe culture that fostered the free exchange of ideas for Enlightenment thinkers like Voltaire and Rousseau.
