March 1, 2013 - Visiting the Duomo

Today, we visited the Duomo including a climb to the top to get a great view of the city. A truly amazing cathedral. After that, we spent the rest of the day exploring around the Duomo.

For supper, we found a restaurant not far from our apartment. We ordered a primi and a secondi. The meal was very good but it turns out that each plate is the size of a regular meal back home. Needless to say, we were stuffed at the end of our meal.








Basilica di Santa Croce (Italian for 'Basilica of the Holy Cross')


Basilica di San Miniato al Monte






After our visit of the Duomo, we continued our exploration which included the statue of David. The one outside is a replica while the one inside the Accademia Gallay near this location is the original one.
