From series “Furious Footways Around the World That Make You Dizzy”
Milan Cathedral is also an outstanding monument of world significance. One of the main features of the architectural landmark are beautiful staircases. During walks on them the head can spin not only from a steep rise and hundreds of steps, but also from incredible beauty. All lovers of extreme entertainments are offered to climb to the roof of the cathedral, where the viewing platform is located. For this it is enough to overcome 500 steps of a dizzying ladder. There is a staircase from the north side of the cathedral.
Milan Cathedral is a unique architectural monument. It is one of the most striking examples of flaming Gothic architecture in the world, which was especially popular in Spain during the early Middle Ages. The cathedral is decorated with numerous carvings and sculptures. Its beautiful staircases are also framed by incredibly beautiful carved banisters. There is one more, more comfortable way to climb to the viewing platform on the roof of the cathedral – to use the elevator.
