Rome or Florence for a semester of study abroad?

Hello. I'd like to spend a semester in Italy this fall, but I cannot decide whether I should go to Rome or Florence. I want to go somewhere where I will completely immersed in the culture, and I like to go off and explore places. As much as I appreciate culture, however, I do like to party and drink rather often. Which city would be the better fit?





Any experiences from study abroad students who lived in either of these cities would be much appreciated too. Thank you!

Rome or Florence for a semester of study abroad?
Florence is definitely more "italian" because its so much smaller, but rome is incredible too. I'd say Florence because of the culture aspect, every city has nightclubs
Reply:Rome, Florence doesn't have enough to do in it to occupy you for a semester.
Reply:If I could choose, i would go for Rome.
Reply:Rome is awesome, but it's a major metropolis that after a while begins to feel too much like home. i stayed in florence for a year and it was amazing. my vote goes with florence!





oh, and there are Plenty of clubs, bars and pubs.
