Abstract: 
Construction of the Duomo, a Gothic-style cathedral started in 1386 and ended in 1809. The entirety of the edifice is built in white marble. Views of the Duomo from various angles, including the entrance to the Vittorio-Emanuele gallery. The Charterhouse of Pavia, built in 1386, is located outside of Milan. "Aoste": arch erected in 24 B.C.; "Lucques": an interesting set of stairs built on the site of a Roman amphitheater; "Pise": the Piazza of the Duomo and the Baptistery; "Le Campo-Santo": the most beautiful graveyard in Italy; "The Campanile" or the Leaning Tower of Pisa: construction started in 1174, but ever since, the tower continues to lean towards the south; "Florence": panoramic view from San-Miniato; entrance to the gallery of Uffizi; the Old Palace Square and "la loggia Dei Lanzi", which is occupied by many statues from different eras. Golden sunset in Arno. No where other than Italy can one find such a harmonious blending between nature and art.
