Let us take for a walk around Firenze. 4k sightseeing of Florence’s Piazza Duomo and the Cathedral.
I want to emphasize - this is the first the cathedral of it's kind in the west. Designed by Arnolfo di Cambio, Santa Maria del Fiore was built from 1296-1459 and its architecture (mostly Gothic) left an important impact on Renaissance and modern buildings alike.
This is our stop for today - Florence! Completed in 1436, the cathedral is not only one of the best examples of Italian Gothic architecture but it is also rich in art that ranges across many geniuses centuries ago.
The facade of Santa Maria del Fiore has three portals with a window above each entrance - they symbolize faith, hope and love.
