Vatican City, located within Rome, is the world's smallest independent state (0.44 km2) and the headquarters of Catholicism! 🌍 St. Peter's Basilica is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, with Michelangelo's "Pietà" and Bernini's baldachin as its highlights. 🏛️ Climb the cupola to enjoy a panoramic view of Rome. 📸 In the Sistine Chapel, admire Michelangelo's "Last Judgment" and the ceiling painting. 🎨 The Vatican Museums boast a vast collection of art, including Raphael's "The School of Athens" and ancient sculptures. 🖼️ The obelisk and fountains in St. Peter's Square create a majestic atmosphere. 🌟 The Papal Audience (Wednesday mornings, reservations required) is also a special experience! 🙏 Admission to the museum is about 20 euros, but we recommend booking online to shorten your wait time. 🎟️ Strict dress code (shoulders and knees must be covered). ⚠️ Spring and fall (April-June, September-November) are the best times to visit. 🌞 Easily accessible from Rome on Metro Line A. 🚇 A mecca of faith and art, immerse yourself in the rich history! 😎💥
