The DUOMO Cathedral (Santa Maria Del Fiore - St. Mary of the Flowers) is an architectural marvel and one of the most spectacular instances of Gothic architecture with the largest dome of any place of workship constructed without any scaffolding. On another plane, the Duomo bears evidence of the "hidden gospels" of Christianity such as the Gnostic Gospels and has a number of mystical symbols and images embellished within. These bear evidence of the sacred geometry, and the Divine Feminine worshipped in secret by occult groups such as the Knight Templars, the Rosicrucians, and the Free Masons, and referred to in the best selling novels - the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown as well as The Templar Revelation by Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince. The Duomo experience is a deeply spiritual and mystical one that must be experienced for one's self in Florence.
