Luxury Comes in the Form of Last Minute First Class Flights and Milan Cathedral

Find deeply discounted last minute flights to Milan to tour the Duomo. - IFlyFirstClass

Milan Cathedral, or the Duomo, is a spectacular artistic, cultural and spiritual landmark. Leonardo da Vinci himself had a hand in the cathedral’s design, and his involvement heralds the cathedral’s stupendous artistry. The 15th-century Gothic cathedral holds some of the world’s most acclaimed works. In fact, it is said to house more statues than any other structure in the world. More than 130 gargoyles and 700 figures loom over the cathedral’s exterior and interior spaces. The most notable of these is the golden "Madonnina" statue atop the cathedrals tallest spire. In addition to these impressive pieces, more than 3,400 statues decorate the cathedral, its rooftop and its grounds. Gorgeous statuary isn’t the cathedral’s only artwork though. You can also see incredible stained glass windows and frescoes. While you’re near the cathedral’s apse, look for the red light bulb. The light purportedly marks the spot that holds a nail used in Jesus’ crucifixion. For a breathtaking view of the city, head to the cathedral’s rooftop. There, you’ll enjoy sweeping panoramas of Milan and up-close views of the statues and gargoyles. For the most rewarding experience, fly to Milan’s cathedral and historic sites with last minute deals.
