Duomo in Milan, Italy

Emilio, Solina, and me at the Duomo in Milan (Li Galo)
Duomo, also known as Milan Cathedral, is an masterpiece. Known for its statues and roof top view, hundreds of tourists flock to see this magnificent sight. It was built 5 centuries ago and is the oldest church. 

According to Famous Wonders (website), it is also one of the most beautiful churches, often being compared with other cathedrals. It has no bell tower, but it continues to hold church services to this day.

Also, according to Famous Wonders, you can get a view of the city and the Alps by taking a roof tour of the cathedral. Keep in mind, you'll have to buy the ticket to be able to access it. There is the option of the elevator or the stairs. However, tours are only held during the first week of July and the end of September. Aside from the roof, there is a archaeological site which has different relics that tell the story of the cathedral.
