[Vatican City 🇻🇦] Climb the Cathedral's Cupola❗

《Cupola of St. Peter's Basilica》
The word cupola comes from the Italian word meaning "small cup."
It is a hemispherical or other shaped roof structure attached to the top of a building, and is sometimes used as an observation deck.

The first floor of the cathedral is free to enter, but we highly recommend climbing up to the cupola♪

Take the elevator up and enter the cupola for a close-up look at the mosaics seen from below😍 So beautiful...!

From here, it's all stairs.
Towards the observation deck, climb the narrow staircase built inside the cupola, about 330 steps deep🚶♀️

Once at the top, you'll enjoy a panoramic view of St. Peter's Square and the Vatican Gardens🎵

You'll definitely want to climb up to see this view.
