The Milan Cathedral, or Duomo di Milano, is the fifth largest cathedral in the world and the largest in Italy. But, despite my incredible fear of heights, I was most excited to visit the rooftop.  Here is the first of two posts from up on the rooftop of the Milan Cathedral.  What do you think?  Do you have a favorite shot below?

Milan Cathedral Roof Photo #1:  The grey and white trim at the top of the Duomo roof stand out against a clear, blue sky.

Milan Cathedral Roof Photo #2:  You can see the Alps from the Duomo roof, but every angle I could manage included a hideous, blue construction crane.  I thought this statue was more interesting to share…

Milan Cathedral Roof Photo #3:  An amazing number of statues stand tall on the tips of the Duomo di Milano’s roof.
