Retken kuvaus

Embark on a journey of faith and artistry with a visit to St. Peter's Basilica, an emblem of centuries-old devotion and artistic mastery. Commissioned by Pope Julius II in the 16th century, this grand basilica is believed to be the final resting place of Saint Peter, one of Jesus Christ's foremost disciples. Ascend the dome to start your exploration, where you'll be captivated by the intricate interior mosaics as your audio guide weaves tales of the church's rich history.

Next, descend from the dome and prepare to be spellbound by masterpieces such as Michelangelo's Pietà and Bernini's Baldacchino. Pay homage to the final resting places of St. Peter and numerous pontiffs while navigating through the basilica's highlights with a digital map and 27 designated listening points. Immerging yourself in its ornate embellishments and exquisite mosaic artistry will surely leave you in awe. Remember, entrance to St. Peter's Basilica may require some patience during peak seasons, but it's worth every minute.

Extend your journey with a leisurely visit to Castel Sant'Angelo. Traverse its five floors of museum exhibits, spiralling through its ramp and discovering cells and chambers that once housed Papal residents. Marvel at the chamber of ashes, home to remnants of iconic Roman figures and impeccably preserved frescoes. And for a truly unforgettable experience, ascend to the roof terrace for a panoramic view of the sprawling cityscape below. This tour promises an immersive dive into timeless beauty and spiritual significance, leaving you enriched and inspired.
