Milan Cathedral, better known as the Duomo, is one of the largest Gothic churches in the world. Its construction began in the 14th century and was not completed until about 500 years later. I had visited the cathedral twice but never climbed to its roof. On this last visit I had this privilege and the view you have is simply breathtaking: there are gargoyles, statues (around 3400) and 135 needles. The facade has several architectural styles including Gothic, Renaissance and Neoclassical. Also noteworthy are the bronze doors with bas-reliefs of city life and Our Lady. Inside, 52 huge columns support the entire structure. Among the statues of its interior I highlight that of Saint Bartholomew who is shown carrying his own skin.

A Catedral de Milão, mais conhecida como Duomo, é uma das maiores igrejas góticas do mundo. A sua construção foi iniciada no século XIV e só foi concluída cerca de 500 anos depois. Já tinha visitado a catedral duas vezes mas nunca tinha subido ao seu telhado. Nesta útima visita tive esse previlégio e a visão que se tem é simplesmente de tirar o fôlego: são gárgulas, estátuas
