Milan's Cathedral Buttresses
One very cool thing about this cathedral is that visitors are allowed to climb the exterior and explore the wonderful architecture from up close.
Milan's Cathedral as seen from the roof
We made it to the top of the cathedral, and I wanted to keep going! Unfortunately, this was it. Shortly after taking this shot we began our descent.
Directions: The top of the Cathedral!
Milan's Cathedral
As we were walking around, I couldn't believe that we were actually on the roof of the Cathedral. You can climb it too!
Milan's Cathedral Spires
Visitors are free to walk all over the cathedral and explore it from all different angles. We did just that!
Galleria Vittorio Emaluele
Built in the 19th century, this beautiful galleria near the cathedral square is great for window-shopping and people watching. You might also want to buy yourself a cup of coffee and a pastry, and relax in this interior mall at one of the cafes.
Directions: Next to the cathedral
Milan's Cathedral
Milan's cathedral, the fourth largest in Europe, is incredibly beautiful. It was built in the Gothic style from 1386 to 1810 entirely from pink marble of Candoglia.
Directions: Take the Metro to the "Duomo" stop
