Završavam svoj post iz Rima posjetom Vatikanu koji smo ostavili za zadnji dan. Kao što znate Vatikan je najmanja država svijeta, omeđena zidinama i sjedište je Katoličke crkve i njenog poglavara Pape. Imali smo tu sreću pa smo Papu vidjeli već prvog dana u Rimu.
Karte za Vatikanski muzej smo kupili ranije online, zajedno s audio vodičem - što preporučam.
To je bio pametan potez jer smo preskočili sve redove i bili odmah unutra. Sve ide jako brzo što je za svaku pohvalu. Muzej je ogroman, hodali smo satima! Čim smo ušli ostala sam zadivljena svim stropnim detaljima u dvoranama. Najviše me dojmila dvorana s kartama, Rafaelova soba i naravno Sikstinska kapela.
U muzeju imate i restoran i kafić - u kojem sam popila najbolju kavu, a i jednu od najjeftinijih u cijelom Rimu, ne biste vjerovali. Na kraju smo obišli Trg sv. Petra na kojem se nalazi istoimena Bazilika. Red za Baziliku je bio dosta veliki ali isplatilo se čekati. Najveća je crkva na svijetu, a njenu veličinu si možete pojmiti tek kad vidite njenu raskošnu unutrašnjost.
Ending my Rome post with the trip to Vatican City we left for the last day. As you know, the Vatican City is the smallest state in the world, bordered by the walls and the headquarters of the Catholic Church and its chief Pope. We had this luck so we saw Pope the very first day in Rome.
We bought tickets for the Vatican Museum earlier online, along with audio guide - what I recommend. That was a clever move because we skip all rows and were immediately inside. Everything goes very fast. The museum is huge, we walked for hours! As soon as we entered, I was amazed with all the ceiling details in the halls. I was most impressed by the map room, Rafael's room and of course the Sikstine Chapel.
In the museum you have a restaurant and a cafe - where I drank the best coffee, and one of the cheapest in the whole Rome, you would not believe it. Finally, we visited St. Peter's Square on which is the same named Basilica. The line for Basilica was quite big but it was worth the wait. It is the largest church in the world, and you can only imagine its size when you see its luxurious interior.
