Wow

The Orvieto Duomo is unique with the wow factor from it's great black and white striped walls to beautiful mosaics and biblical scenes at the front.
Often these colourful decorations are missing so it was marvellous to see their brilliance. Some columns around the side were quite plain without the mosaics.

    There is certainly a wow factor about the Duomo in Orvieto, especially when the sun shines on the front in the afternoon sun. Just beautiful

    Orvieto was my favourite town in Italy. I wonder if you went down the well?
