Walking Around Florence, Italy - Walking Tour 4K

Today’s journey started at the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella and went to the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, a magnificent architectural masterpiece. There, I faced a small challenge of climbing 463 steps in a fairly narrow space to reach Brunelleschi's Dome. From the top, I could see far and wide across Florence. Finally, I visited Palazzo Vecchio, where I toured the site, and especially got to enter a secret room through a door in The Hall of Maps.
