The most stunning church I've seen

Visiting the Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence was honestly incredible. The cathedral’s massive dome, designed by Brunelleschi, is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen. Walking around the church and inside, I was struck by the sheer beauty of the frescoes and the architecture. It feels like stepping into a masterpiece. One tip I’d give is to climb up to the dome. It’s a bit of a workout with all the stairs, but the panoramic view of Florence from the top is so worth it. It’s breathtaking. A fun fact I learned: The dome took over 16 years to complete and was an engineering marvel for its time. The whole experience left me in awe of how much effort went into creating something so beautiful. Definitely a highlight of my time in Florence! #europetrip #italy #florence
