Rome at a Glance -Part 3 (of 3): Vatican



If this is the first of the three of my Rome posts you're seeing, here's what I've done. I looked through (and loved!) a bunch of photos (more than 600!) that my kid B took in Rome while on vacation with my sister K. They had a blast and I'm so glad they were willing to share with us!


Part three is all about the Vatican. What an amazing place! Here, you can see for yourself.

 mosaic floor!


awe-inspiring paintings
 



You can climb the stairs or take the elevator to the top of the dome

 and look out.




The new world emerging out of the old





The famous three streams of light in the Sistine Chapel



Have you ever been? Would you like to ? I know I would.
