The Duomo in Milano is the third largest christian church in the world. Construction began in 1386 and took 200 years to complete. It is 1577 meters long. There are two acres of church, 3400 statues and thousands of beautiful stained glass windows. The church is said to hold 40,000.
There is a statue of Mary covered with gold on the outside of this Duomo of St. Mary. Our guide told us that the "virgin" protected the city.
