Milan Cathedral, or Duomo di Milano, is one of the most famous landmarks in Milan, Italy, and Europe at large. It is renowned for its magnificent Gothic architecture and is the fifth-largest Christian church in the world. Its rooftop, accessible by stairs and elevator, offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the city. Visitors can walk among the cathedral's intricate spires, flying buttresses, and a forest of pinnacles that make up this architectural masterpiece. Up close, one can admire the craftsmanship of the statues, the ornate carvings, and the decorative elements that are not visible from ground level. The rooftop walk provides a unique perspective not just of the cathedral, but also of Milan's urban landscape, stretching to the Alps on clear days. It's a spiritual retreat for many and a must-visit photo spot for tourists. This spectacular perch is also the best place to admire the famous Madonnina, a golden statue of the Virgin Mary atop the cathedral's highest spire, and a symbol of the city.
