The Spaniards came April 17-19th and we went up to the Duomo in the center of Florence. It is one the most (if not the most) attractive and historical buildings in Florence. Inside the cathedral itself there is a moral in the dome depicting the levels from hell to heaven. I'll let the pictures do the talking.

The depiction of hell within the dome.

Vasari's finished fresco with the three main levels: hell, life on earth, and heaven.

The view after climbing up 463 stairs, and no there is not an elevator.

View from the top of the Duomo.

Climbing up the stairs. Luckily the woman behind me survived. I haven't heard someone breathe that hard in a long time.
