La visit to the Vatican Museums it was a unique experience, which I will never forget and as Francesco says “there is so much of that art put together that you can't fully enjoy the magnificence and beauty of every single work”.

Everything we have seen is indescribable sculptures, the archaeological remains, the paintings, the curtains, gallery and the fabulous Sistine Chapel.

2nd day - SATURDAY: in the morning we were at Coliseum, a monument that in my opinion is a must for anyone who goes to Rome.


Released from Coliseum we so headed to Sant'Angelo castel, which I wanted to visit at all costs after reading Dan Brown's beautiful book "Angels and Demons".
