Rick Steves Doesn't Think Much of the Facade of Duomo Cathedral

He notes that the "noisy neo-Gothic facade from the 1870s is covered with pink, green, and white Tuscan marble."  (This photo obscures the church's most impressive dome.)


Some interiors of this cathedral, for which construction started in 1296 and was finished in 1436.
