If you are traveling to Florence it is impossible not to stumble upon the majestic cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
This is one of the largest and most recognized churches in the world, and is an essential stop for any visit to the Florentine city. As soon as you enter the central Piazza del Duomo, you will be fascinated by the grandeur of the 19th century neo-Gothic façade, with its geometric shapes in black and white marble which give the church a suggestive and recognizable effect.
As soon as you enter the cathedral you will find an imposing three-nave church made up of mosaic windows that allow colored light to enter the church. The octagonal dome, designed by Brunelleschi, will make you stay upside down for a long time to admire the frescoes depicted by Vasari.
You can also climb to the top of the dome and have an exclusive view of the city, this is the highest point in Florence from which you can admire the suggestive city rooftops. Furthermore, you can complete your visit by entering the baptistery adjacent to the cathedral, in perfect harmony with it, or with the entrance to Giotto's Bell Tower which integrates perfectly with the church.
If you are in Florence you cannot fail to come across Piazza del Duomo, so don't stay out anddon't miss the opportunity to enter one of the most beautiful churches in the world!
