Florence Baptistery (Gates of Paradise)
One of Florence's oldest buildings, this octagonal Romanesque baptistery rose in the 11th and 12th centuries. Its three bronze doors, among them Ghiberti's gilded Gates of Paradise, and a glittering Byzantine mosaic ceiling draw visitors from across the world.
