I have always told people that the Duomo is the most awe-inspiring piece of architecture I have ever had the privilege of seeing.

I have shown people various shots of it from different websites but they have never really done it justice.

When I search again last night I came upon your blog.

I would just like to say a massive thank you! I have now saved your link and will always use it to show people exactly what is so special about the Duomo.

Thank you again

Twice to Florence and still havent climbed the Duomo. Sigh. Next time.

I LOVE the colors, mostly because they do seem mildly comical. I like the surprise factor.

‘del fiore’ = of the flowers. love it.

You both are wildly photogenic in these pictures.

Ive decided that when I plan my trip around the world, I need to factor in some way to pay for both of you to come with us…yes, you are that badass.

Oh man! I think I’m getting way too excited looking at this. The Florence Baptistery colors are gorgeous! And those doors, eeeep! Too incredible.

p.s. You guys look super cute at the top of the Duomo.

I loved the colors of Il Duomo. At first glance and from a distance it seems almost comical and unreal. But the closer you get it’s just magnificent. Best trip ever. Thanks for reminding me how great it was by doing these posts
