Dubbed the cradle of Renaissance art, influenced by classical art and architectural forms developed by ancient Greeks and Romans, Florence was once a Roman colony. The Florence Cathedral is open daily. The Florence Cathedral, or the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (Il Duomo di Firenze), is a medley of a grand Gothic structure and a Renaissance-style dome. The Florence Cathedral is the world's 4th largest cathedral after St Peter's Basilica in Rome, St Paul's Cathedral in London and the Duomo di Milano. Strolling along streets in Florence, visitors will find various souvenirs featuring the iconic character, as well as small outlets with only Pinocchio products on sale.
