    One of them may be the Duomo of Florence in Tuscany, Italy. There are so many though it is hard to pick one.

    I agree that it would be hard to select the best one because there are now so many. Plus, it is just a matter of opinion as to which one would be the best. The following search might be a good place to start in finding the best ones, though.

    I agree with the first poster... the Duomo in Florence Italy is definitely high on my list.

    I was there a couple years ago and took some pics... here's a sampling! :)

    Enjoy!

    Nice pictures. I like it because of all the detail that went into it, incredible workmanship. The Florence Cathedral in your first picture is beautiful too.
