The architecture was beautiful. And there was a sense of peace and tranquility while in the cathedral . The views from the roofs were very good as well. The only issue I had was no barcode when I tried to view tickets. The staff were very helpful and let me through

The view from Milan Cathedral is unique. The architecture is full of attention to detail. We took the elevator up, but there are still around 100 more steps to climb. The only way down is via the stairs. Every step is worth it.

I had never shopped on this site before and it has been very satisfactory. Easy purchase and cheaper price than others online for access to the terrace of the duomo in Milan.
