Seeing the Holy See

After arriving in Rome, I decided to spend the afternoon quickly seeing the major sights. Over the next few days I'll spend more time actually going inside those I didn't already visit 10 years ago, but in the meantime I wanted to refamiliarise myself with the city.

One part of Rome I didn't visit when I was last here is situated on the Western side of the Tiber - Vatican City. The Vatican is the smallest country in the world, located entirely within the far larger city of Rome.

I'll spend more time visiting inside the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican museums later in the week, but as for now, I have officially visited 30 countries!Leer más
