Vacation in Central Italy


Friday, 26 May 2006 - Stayed inside during the day, then after dinner took the subway to Piazza del Duomo in Milan enjoyed views of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and the Duomo's exterior despite scaffolding, and soaked up the evening atmosphere around the cathedral.

Close up of the Galleria. A triumphal arch was added to the southern end of this cruciform gallery, thereby formally terminating this covered urban link between the opera house and the cathedral.

The top of the Duomo. There is scaffolding covering most of the facade so this is the only part that is clear.
