Book store · San Niccolo

"This independent bookstore feels like a cozy home, with rooms full of books and comfortable chairs in which to sit and browse. Fans of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code may recognize the shop as the one where Robert Langdon searched for Dante’s Divine Comedy . There is an extensive selection of English-language titles about Florence , Tuscany, and Italy that range from tiny novelty volumes to large coffee-table tomes. Head to the back and you will find a few shelves of secondhand paperbacks that provide material to read that doesn't require Wi-Fi."
