EspañolItaly travel: Florence church Santa Maria del Fiore
Title:
Italy travel: Florence church Santa Maria del Fiore
Description:
Italy travel: Florence. Church of Florence named Santa Maria del Fiore. Wish we would have had time to climb to the top. Florence is such an action packed and walkable city. We did get a spectacular overview from Perillo Tours, but Florence would be worth a week's trip all by itself. Race for third place in the 'world's largest cathedrals' competition? That competition kept the construction of this cathedral going for decades. "Prosperous Florence wanted to surpass in grandeur its Tuscan rivals, Pisa and Siena, with a yet more magnificent church, grander in size and more richly adorned. This cathedral was, as a result, the largest in Europe when completed, with room for 30,000 people. It is now only exceeded in size by Saint Paul's Cathedral in London, the Seville Cathedral , and the Milan Cathedral." - Wikipedia.
