Duomo in Florence, Italy

Recently I have been excited about my upcoming summer trip. A lot of beautiful places in the world have appeared on my mind. One of them is the Duomo in Florence/Firenze, Italy. I've been to Florence once and that's absolutely a stunning place where I would love to stay forever. Florence first impressed me with its monumental Duomo, located right in the center of town. The Duomo or Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Italian or Basilica of Saint Mary of the Flower in English is the cathedral in Florence and one of the largest churches in Italy. It was constructed in the 13th century in Gothic style. Now the whole cathedral complex is recognized as the UNESCO World Heritage Site. I am sure that if you happen to be in Florence, you definitely see this marvelous Duomo. And now I am showing some of the photos of the Duomo I took. Let's check out its beauty.

Tuscany


I'm so happy to share with you that I'm preparing for my summer trip. And a must-see place I really really want to pay a visit is Tuscany in Italy, specifically the Chianti region with cypresses, sunflower fields, stunning hills. Actually, I did visit Tuscany last year but just Florence and Pisa only. I didn't have the opportunity to see natural landscapes in other regions in Tuscany. So I do wish to make it this year. 

Look at these pictures my desire is just getting higher and higher =)
