Teatro Maggio, Firenze

I took a stroll on a recent Saturday to have a better look at the actual Teatro Maggio in Florence.  There were no performances this particular weekend; I just wanted to have a good look at the joint.

This building is so modern it feels almost out of place in Florence!

A rooftop bar, par excellence
