It's incorrect markup to use a block element within an inline one. It may still render if the browser and Doctype are lenient, but it's not valid. If you want block elements to behave like inline elements, set the display property to inline-block .

Having said that, have a look at your code as per

420                                      <span property="description">

421  <p>-<p/>

422  <p>A perfect gift for a friend who is a constant traveler and adventure junkie.</p>

423  <p>You can place this on you wall and remember the majestic and wonderful places you’ve been to.</p>

424  <p>Just scratch the surface and the names of the countries and islands will reveal</p>

427<p>

428  <strong>Colour:</strong> Black with a copper foil<br />

429  <strong>Size:</strong> 82x59cm<br />

430  <strong>Material:</strong> Kraft paper</p>

431                                     </span>

'span' is an inline element and 'p' is a block element.

Google the subject or see <span> - HTML | MDN

Forgot to add that the anchor ('a') element deviates from the above rule in that block elements are allowed within an anchor element.

I looked a bit further and found

You are missing 3 end tags...

</p>

</div>

and

</footer>

Notice the placement of the / in each. Most tags in html need a start <tag> and end </tag> in order to be "complete". Those errors are showing you that you have not closed several tags that require a / end tag.
