Brunelleschi's Dome Insights: A Fascinating Journey into History, Art and Architecture
An unbelievable guided tour to discover the greatest treasure of the cradle of the Renaissance: the majestic Duomo of Florence and its Dome.
<p style="font-size:14px;line-height:1.6;color:#57646f;margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em">Let’s start the journey by visiting<strong> Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral</strong>, the<strong> main church of Florence</strong> and one of the most important in Europe, the symbol of the city since the time it was built. Our<strong> expert local guide</strong> will show you the insides and will tell you all the secrets behind the construction of th<strong>e biggest masonry dome ever built in history</strong>.<br />But that’s not all! Our tour will grant you<strong> access to an exclusive area of the cathedral</strong>, just <strong>underneath Brunelleschi’s greatest work</strong>, so that you can admire it from an<strong> unusual perspective</strong>. Take a deep dive into the <strong>vivid colors of the Last Judgment </strong>and absorb all its little details.

You will first reach a balcony, placed almost halfway, which is right at the base of the dome. While you walk your way to the other side of it, get a closer look at the biggest fresco of the world, painted by the great artists<strong> Giorgio Vasari </strong>and <strong>Federico Zuccari</strong>: watch the figures come alive right in front of your eyes and enjoy such an evocative and unforgettable moment.<br />It’s time to keep going up, there are now only some steps left before reaching the top of the Lantern.

You will also have a unique perspective on the dome itself, which from just under your feet will descend to the ground, becoming one with the roof of the Cathedral.<br />Last but not least, at the end of our tour you get to keep the ticket: an <strong>all-inclusive pass that will grant you access to all the other monuments of the Duomo Complex for the following 72 hours</strong>.</p>

A guided tour of the Palmenti di Pietranico
Throughout the territory of Pietranico there are ancient stone tanks once used for winemaking. Carved directly into the spikes of rocks that emerged from the earth. Inside the tanks, the grapes were pressed and pressed using a rudimentary beam press.
<p>The tour of the Palmenti di Pietranico is a circuit created for the visit of ancient basins huge outcropping rocks scattered throughout the territory which, worked with extreme skill, were used as tanks to vinify the grapes directly on the fields. So the farmers brought home only the must, leaving the waste of processing directly in the countryside, avoiding the effort of transporting material that would not have produced wine to the farms and thus fertilizing the same fields. The millstones are one of the best testimonials to understand the very refined level reached by local artisans and the enormous size that the production of fine wines had reached in the area. In the Municipality of Pietranico there is the greatest concentration of millstones dug in the rock present in Abruzzo, located on the west-facing slope dominated by the town.</p>
<p>This itinerary is a circuit created for visiting these ancient pools. The tour starts from the village in via Umberto I where the Caprera Bath is currently preserved, recovered after someone had removed it from its original location. On Via Settentrionale, turn right on a downhill asphalt road, at km 0.58 you can visit thetub Mattucci entering a private road (50m). Continuing downhill on asphalt you arrive at a crossroads where you can admire a water collection tank, always carved out of stone (km 0.88). To continue the tour you need to turn right, but first go straight for 100m to visit the Bath Villa Odoardi. On a large and convenient breach you reach km 1.96 where at the crossroads you go right for a 250 m long natural-bottom track that leads to a still uncensored basin; go back along the same track until the breach, turn right and you will arrive at the Tub De Vito (km 2.65). At km 3 you reach the lowest point of the itinerary, abandon the breach and turn left on a track that goes uphill towards the village accompanied by two rows of oaks. At km 3.65, a small 100m hike takes place to the right to visit the Grandonio Bath. Going uphill again, at km 4 you cross an asphalted road and take another short 200m hike to the right to the Marzio Bath located very close to a house and not clearly visible. Return to the crossroads and turn right on a grassy track that leads back to Pietranico in the direction of the maximum slope.</p>
