Duomo, Florence, Italy

Every time I think of Florence, I will forever wonder what the inside of the city’s main cathedral looks like.

Duomo 2, Florence ItalyI can’t go into detail about the inside of the Duomo because I didn’t get to go in!! The moral of the story is to make sure to pack a pair of pants because in certain sites within Italy (Vatican City, Sistine Chapel, and the Duomo to name a few) you can’t wear anything above the knees. And I didn’t know that of course because there was no TGTG website telling me such a fact :) However, if the inside matched even half of what it looked like on the outside, I’d say go in!

It’s hard to miss the gregarious beauty of the Duomo’s presence within the city. It stands out much like the Twin Towers did in New York, although not nearly as tall of course. The Duomo’s large circular shape makes it appear like an ancient baseball stadium and as you walk closer, you begin to see the truly amazing details it encompasses and why it’s such a popular site for locals and travelers alike.Duomo 3, Florence Italy

I feel bad I didn’t go buy a cheap pair of Italian pants just so I could quickly get into the cathedral’s interior, but I was only there for a day and I had some other things on my Florence list . . . So there’s your warning… wear pants!
