Duomo Cathedral with the Basilica in front of it |
Duomo Cathedral stands out from all other buildings |
The size is breath taking |
Amazing detail and painting above the doors |
The doors were a little on the small side for Gini |
Marble covered the whole Cathedral |
A variety for marble colours coating the walls |
Doorway detail |
Marble floors on the inside |
A clock which didn't seem to work |
Deep in thought |
3D marble floor watch out Tom! |
Wooden doors on the inside of the Cathedral |
Overwhelming is an understatement |
The dome paintings |
Stain glass windows at the top |
|
The view from the first level of the dome |
194 metres! |
The view |
Gini a little scared of heights! |
|
Streets leading to the Cathedral |
From the top of the Dome |
One of the many interesting staircases to climb for the view |
Brick covered the inside passages |
I found a doozer hard at work! |
A taster of the view |

Dontello's strainglass window |
The heavens above |
We were here! |

Poor lion didn't see it coming |
Amazing scultpure park of marble |
Ponte Vecchio, full of jewellery stores! |
A view of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, once housed black smiths and tanners |

Proof we made it through the hour and a half wait in queue |
Scooters everywhere |
Nice piggy, now eat the coin! |
Tom's new friend, piggy we call him |
He dribbles a lot! |
Vecchio, the artist in the middle of the bridge |
Tom with golden locks |
Strange locks with messages about loved ones |
|
|
A clever cover! |
Giardino di Boboli |
Once the Medici estate, nice! |

We had long walks |
Scary tunnels |
