Duomo

I don't think the travel book description quite prepares one for the first sighting of the Duomo. My goodness, so unique and different from any we have seen so far, a real confection of pink, white and green.

The colours don't show up so well in the photos. It is impressive for colour, size and of course the famous Brunelleschi dome.

As you walk down the streets you get little peeks at the splendour.

Very impressive inside looking up at the frescos on the dome.

And the marble floors!
