ITALY - TOSCANA - FIRENZE - Piazza del Duomo
 

In Roman times there were mass of houses and public buildings. Later in the 4th century the church was built. Three centuries later the Baptistry was built next to the church, and this area began to be the center of religious life in Firenze.

Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is the third largest cathedral in the world after St. Peter's in Rome and St. Paul's in London. 
Baptistry was described as "il mio bel San Giovanni" by Dante who was christened here in 1265.
