The splendid Florence Cathedral in all its magnificence

Lo splendido Duomo di Firenze in tutta la sua magnificenza

The splendid Duomo of Florence in all its magnificence.
I still had a couple of beautiful photos to publish from the last trip I had made to the Tuscan capital.
And obviously they are of the symbolic monument of the city: the Duomo of Santa Maria in Fiore.
A less classic photo, the first, lateral and a more classic one, the second, also with the Baptistery.

In primo piano il Battistero di San Giovanni (da cui il nome alla piazza) e dietro il Duomo della città, Santa Maria del Fiore ed il campanile di Giotto che fa capolino da dietro il soffitto del battistero.

Particolari del Portale del Battistero di Firenze.
Passeggiando per Firenze non si può non fare un passo a vedere la facciata del suo splendido duomo (Santa Maria del Fiore) e del suo battistero.
Questa volta mi sono soffermato su qualche particolare di uno dei tre portali d’ingresso del battistero di San Giovanni ed esattamente di quello che viene chiamato Porta del Paradiso (Est) di Lorenzo Ghiberti

Florence Cathedral and Baptistery

Il Duomo di Firenze e il Battistero

The Cathedral of Florence and the Baptistery.
The Cathedral of Florence, called Santa Maria del Fiore, is certainly one of the most beautiful architectural works in the world.
The colors and grandeur (it is the third largest church in the world) make it one of the most famous monuments in Italy.
The polychrome marble facade, the Giotto tower and the Baptistery of San Giovanni... all together they are a spectacle.

La bella Firenze e le sue meraviglie viste dall’alto

La splendida Firenze vista dall'alto

La bella Firenze e le sue meraviglie viste dall’alto.
Un weekend speso a Firenze, ad inizio ottobre ma con temperature estive è impareggiabile.
Non ho scattato molte foto questa volta (anche perché se ne trovano a vagonate nella rete) ma ovviamente non potevo esimermi dal pubblicarne qualcuna realizzada dallo splendido Piazzale Michelangelo, il punto panoramico più famoso della città.
Nei prossimi giorni ne inserirò altre.

Sei stato a Firenze e in piazzale Michelangelo? Leggi oppure scrivi uncomment a riguardo.

Piazzale Michelangelo in Florence is the most famous observation point of the city panorama, reproduced in countless postcards and an obligatory destination for tourists visiting the city.
It was built in 1869 based on a design by the architect Giuseppe Poggi on a hill just south of the historic center, to complete the redevelopment work on the left bank of the Arno.
