• The Vatican

    May 31, 2025 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    Another cultural day viewing the Vatican museums, again so much to see. The audio guide is well worth it in both the Colosseum and Vatican (finding the Vatican audio play number is a little tricky though). Highlights were the Gallery of Maps, Raphael Rooms, Pinacoteca (Art Gallery),
    of course the The Sistine Chapel. By the time we came out of the museums it was mid afternoon so followed the Vatican wall around to Saint Peter’s Basilica. Even though it's free to enter there is still a security check to go through and the queue was massive. 40 minutes to get in but magnificent architecture. Back on the bike tomorrow, heading for Pompeii 😎
