Also there´s ice skating at the large main roundabout arch, at the Parterre:) 6E for skate rental, open til 1am weekends. Get a C1, which loops around. The main Firenze map has a bus map, so you can see that all the C buses loop around, and you can figure out how to catch one from another route. OR, if you´ve the time, walk, as it´s a very nice walk on a sunny day! The buses run til about midnight, then you´ll have to walk or try to get a taxi, unless you´ve driven. Lots of other things besides ice skating, which by today, the last day of January now, the ice skating will be gone all over the city.
Ok, didn´t have time or remember to take actual photos, and as this is the last day of Feb, it will probably be gone tomorrow when I´m around there again tomorrow. Will try to remember to take photos, as either way, it´s a pretty area to see.

update:
Parterre photos. Ice skating gone, as it was only til February. These were taken yesterday Feb 1.
small fruit, veg, jams, canned/jarred homemade goods by local Italians--all very nice, and the food looked great! I had no more room in my luggage:(
Pub around the corner to the arch last photo. The pub is a just down from the market area above.
