Saint Peter's Bastilica is one of the most recognised churches in the world - mainly because it is home to the Pope! But seriously, you get up close to it and it is absolutely huge! Even a pillar is incredibly huge, and the inside is just incredible. I looked it up and it says that it is the world's
best example of Renaissance architecture - primarily because it was designed by Michealangelo. It has been claimed that it is the largest church in the world - and it certainly felt that way! Considering it was so warm outside, it felt so cold inside! We visited the crypt, and visited all the tombs of the past Popes. It was just beautiful, but eventually we had to head over to the Vatican museums!
