Stunning Architecture of the Florence Cathedral
The duomo in Florence is a timeless piece of architecture. Dressed in an eye-catching mix of red, green and white, it looks grand even to this day and age; completion of its construction must have been nothing short of a miracle back in the 1400s.

There’s more to see in the Accademia apart from Michelangelo’s renown David masterpiece. Filled with many colourful paintings and sculptures from the Bizantine and Gothic fourteenth century, to the art of the Renaissance era, it is worth exploring further.
