Vatican

Postby leila » January 5th, 2025, 4:22 pm

The Vatican, as the heart of the Catholic Church and a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a fascinating historical place that attracts millions of visitors each year. With its magnificent museums, the majestic St. Peter's Basilica, and the famous artworks of Michelangelo, such as the Sistine Chapel, there is no doubt that it is an unmissable destination for history and art enthusiasts. Where do you buy tickets for the Vatican? Do you have any tips or recommendations for exploring this unique city-state?

You should also be able to book trips to Italy and Rome, possibly with a tour of Vatican included, in this country.

Sorry leila (OP) but this looks like a not very convincing bot-post.

The thought occurred... But what would be the point? Advertising?

Benefit of the doubt?

Clearly a borg-bot crawling around. The point, I expect, is to "assimilate" information and relay it back to the collective for later use.

So, maybe we should adopt the good old British "Don't tell him, Pike!" stance.

Don't want the Catholic church giving them any ideas! :shock:

Tickets are sold in most major UK supermarkets.

The Sistine chapel was known as the Cistern chapel and the original chain is still in place.

Michelangelo was a genius and his painting on the roof of the Sistine chapel took over 400 years to complete. His original depiction of 24 disciples was changed in 1555 and the kangaroos were painted over the next year.

The Vatican and Colosseum will soon be renovated and large shopping malls and multi-storey car parks contructed, though still retaining the same design.

It will be majestic and an unmissable destination for history and art enthusiasts.

Honestly!
