Outstanding view of the Cathedral
#summerbreak
Fantastic view here just right across the most popular cathedral in the world. Florence gets extremely busy and full of tourist especially in summer time that you may only hear people speak in English due to the high volume of tourism.
The whole tower it is secured upstairs, so pics can be taken but they will always have bar due to the high risk of falling.
There are a lot of narrow steps to climb, so you may want to keep that in mind.
Best time to go will be during the month of May, June or September, avoid July and August due to crowds and heat.
Place to eat: Pochetta sandwiches is a must here! fresh delicious and daily specials are available 😃

Duomo di Firenze
Must visit check point in Florence, even if you are not going in the building, worth it to stand there and look into the details of the architecture, it’s so different from Rome style, this is a Gothic architecture. With the dome engineered by Filippo Brunelleschi, who is one of the inventors of Renaissance architecture.

Amazing building. Italy’s cathedrals never cease to impress me. Every time I go near it I am in awe of its beauty. I would recommend to buy a ticket to climb the tower. With the tower, you’ll still get the view of the Duomo, but perhaps without the day long queues. The morning time is much easier in terms of crowds than evening times. Even at midnight the crowd never stops. Definitely go here when you get the chance!#境外遊 #awesomepic

Florence is one of my absolute favorite cities. I took this picture at dawn in the wonderful Piazza del Duomo on a December morning.

Florence the most romantic Europe city 🇮🇹
#europetrip
There are many romantic cities in Europe, except for Paris and Prague, I only love the small town of Florence! Anyone who knows the word
"Renaissance" should know it, right? This is a complex of humanities, art, and architecture; when you come to Florence, you will find that David in art books and Cathedral A in movies are no longer the existence of a photo or lens, but a visible reality; to be honest, my aesthetics have been crushed for the first time là-
Notre Dame Cathedral
One of the symbols of Florence, with a prominent red dome and a lantern shaped white marble tower above it; If you want to climb the dome, you need to climb 465 steps, and you can also have a panoramic view of the city at the top.
