Pictures from the Vatican, Rome (Italy)
I don't think many are allowed to enter the Vatican City itself, but many are allowed to stand around Saint Peter's Square here and enter or visit the Sistine Chapel and Saint Peter's Basilica here, though. Here are some beautiful pictures from the Vatican City, and you can see St Peter's Basilica from the outside and from the inside here, and you can see St Peter's Square as well. The problem is that due to long queues here for both sites and due to time constraints, pictures of the interesting, cultural and very beautiful Sistine Chapel are not available. The Sistine Chapel is noted for the paintings or murals by Michelangelo depicting God and man reaching out for each other, and also the last judgement of mankind, if I remember correctly. (According to Wikipedia, it's the Genesis and the Last Judgement by Michelangelo, so wow I could actually remember it well. Hoho :) ) Anyways there aren't any pictures of that here. Sorry!
Hope you enjoy the pictures of the Vatican in Rome!
Tour and see the world with me!
