+<code>Recommended Visit Duration
+    Quick visit: 45–60 minutes (focus on Michelangelo)
+    Standard visit: 1–1.5 hours (recommended)
+    Relaxed / detailed: 1.5–2 hours
+Suggested Route (1–1.5 hours)
+    Hall of the Colossus (5–10 min)
+    Start here after entering. Look at the large plaster casts and early works.
+    Hall of the Prisoners (Galleria dei Prigioni) (15–20 min)
+    Michelangelo’s four unfinished Prisoners/Slaves (Atlas, Bearded, Young, and Awakening). These dramatically show his “non-finito” technique — figures emerging from the marble. Also see the unfinished Saint Matthew.
+    The Tribune (Tribuna del David) (20–30 min)
+    The highlight: Michelangelo’s David (1501–1504). Walk around the entire statue to appreciate the anatomy, expression, and details from every angle. This is the original marble (a copy stands in Piazza della Signoria).
+    Gipsoteca Bartolini (optional, 10 min)
+    Collection of 19th-century plaster casts — interesting if you have extra time.
+    Musical Instruments Collection (10–15 min)
+    Historic instruments from the Medici and Lorraine collections, including rare pieces (some linked to Stradivari and early pianos).
+    Painting Galleries (10–15 min)
+    Works by Florentine masters from the 13th–16th centuries (Botticelli, Perugino, Filippino Lippi, etc.). These are secondary for most visitors but worth a quick look.
