The women in Florence, Italy I found quite attractive, although perhaps as much for their colorful dress as their physical features. It's a small city though (~300,000 people). Compared to San Diego at 1.5 million, and Beijing at 20 million.

Chase, I previously lived in Florence for several months. Italian women are extremely attractive. They are short, in great shape, with beautiful hair and eyes. However, they are typically very hard to get with because they are not very warm... They are used to extremely aggressive Italian men- the super natural PUAs if you will. Of course, this is all general talk. The only ones who will be interested in American men tend to be the girls who have a high level of English and are obsessed with everything red, white, and blue. Might help if you have blonde hair and blue eyes. I look very Italian which I believe hurt my chances- I did not look very distinctive. If you do close in on an Italian gal, you have to be bold. Leave all that nice timid American guy at home or she will literally be swooped up by someone else.
Moving on,
Florence is one of the most popular spots for American students to study abroad. Break that down even further, and study abroad programs are usually composed of least 60-65% females. The nightlife is fantastic. Fun bars and clubs, especially in the summer. The city is not very big in size so it remains very accessible by foot. It can be a great place to do both night game (mentioned above) and day game (meeting girls in the spectacular art museums, enjoying gelato by the Duomo, Uffizi, taking a stroll down the arno, in all the shops by the Ponte Vecchio, outside of class in the piazze or at study abroad events, etc...). Totally recommend it for a prolonged vacation. Just expect to have a fairly American experience with the ladies.
