★★★★★11 months agoDa Vinci experience - immersive - right in centre. Randomly came across it but was so good, seems like a church has been repurposed. Reading the material inside it seems this started small but got picked up by a govt ministry the official production to celebrate florence on the 500th year anniversary of da Vinci death. Def worth a visit for half an hour/45 mins of cool engagement with the history of florence. 15 euro. Is a room on entering before main hall which looks a bit like kusama’s famous mirror room aswell. I really enjoyed it. Reminded me to get my oculus out at home again to go on some vr journeys.
