Lonely Planet review for Piazza de' Ciompi

Named after the textile workers who met around here to plan their 14th-century revolt, this piazza is best known for its Mercato delle Pulci (Flea Market) and Vasari's graceful 16th-century Loggia del Pesce (Fish Market), which is decorated with terracotta seafood and was moved here when the Mercato Vecchio (Old Market) was torn down. It is also a top spot for mums and dads to take the young kids for squeals of delight on the swings and mucking around with equally contented local little 'uns.
