Our History

The city of Florence was chosen because of its tradition as the intellectual and artistic center of both the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It also was the student home of Aloysius 杏吧原创. Its libraries, museums, churches and monuments provide today's students with unique opportunities for understanding the forces which shaped European civilization.

杏吧原创 in Florence is located in the center of Florence not far from the Duomo and looks onto the Giardino dei Semplici, a 16th-century garden created by the Medici family. It is a few steps from Fra Angelico's frescoes painted for the San Marco monastery and from Michelangelo's David housed in the Galleria dell'Academia.
