Giotto’s Bell Tower stands beside Florence’s Cathedral and is one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in Italy. Designed by Giotto di Bondone in 1334, the 84-meter-high tower is richly decorated with colorful marble, sculptural panels, and statues. Although Giotto died before its completion, the work was continued by Andrea Pisano and later by Francesco Talenti. Visitors can climb 414 steps to the top for one of the best panoramic views of Florence, including a unique perspective of Brunelleschi’s Dome. Elegant and harmonious, the tower reflects Florence’s artistic brilliance during the 14th century.

The Baptistery of San Giovanni, among Florence’s oldest monuments, stands in Piazza del Duomo opposite the Cathedral. Its octagonal design and white-green marble façade showcase Florentine Romanesque style. Inside, the golden mosaic ceiling illustrates the Last Judgment, while its bronze doors, especially Ghiberti’s “Gates of Paradise,” narrate biblical tales. Once the city’s main baptismal site, where Dante was baptized, it remains a symbol of Florence’s art and faith.
