🇮🇹Florence "Cathedral Square"

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Piazza del Duomo in the center of Florence is the core of the city's landmark. Two world-class buildings stand on the square - Florence Cathedral (Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore) and the Baptistery of San Giovanni. The church is famous for its giant dome made of red, white and green marble, while the baptistery is a must-visit spot because of its bronze doors "Gates of Heaven" and octagonal pure white exterior. The square's ground floor continues the medieval stone paving technique and is surrounded by Gothic bell towers and Baroque-style town hall buildings. Tourists and locals meet here every day, forming a unique picture of the interweaving of Florence's history and modernity.
