Walking into St Peter’s and seeing Michelangelo’s statue of the Pieta is an experience that is hard to describe. I’ve visited St Peter’s several times and the Pieta never fails to affect me with awe and wonder.
Truly mesmerizing, though when I went in July in the morning, the crowd was so big you couldn't even make it to the front of the glass protection.
That was excellent; thank you very much!
This was super intresting. I enjoyed listening and walking with you. What a beautiful basilica! Thank you for sharing
Cool! This is one of the most interesting and mysterious structures in the world.
It really is!
Bravo
Beautiful church didn't get chance to go there I got to see lot beautiful places just came back 5days in rome breath taken back next year 🙏🙏🙏
6:00 Just gonna take quick nap on a bench a stones throw from a passageway used by the pope to escape besiegement by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, no big deal.
Absolutely awesome! They don't make them like this anymore!
What would be more amazing is all the building under the church and square. It’s unbuildable because of what is underground
the necropolis under the basilica can now be booked for tours!
It is a beautiful building
Thank you for this presentation. At 33:14, below the altar is the body of 12th Cent pope St. Pius X ????
yes correct
beautiful
not funny
I think the basilica is fantastic and a fitting expression for the worship of God.
Which one? There's several chambers below ground dedicated to the worship of old gods, seems the mystery Babylon religion never died out after all!
@@MikeJ-pw7ig You’re seriously delusional.
Precisely when was this filmed? I am trying to determine which is the best time of year to visit. The crowds do not look so bad in this film. Which month?
this was last year July during Summer, when Rome is the most populous with tourists, however this was in the morning at around 9am. We bought tickets for the Vatican Museums before the official opening to the main public but it was still nearly full and crowded.
I myself have always tried to visit Rome in the Spring before the official tourist season or the Fall when the kids are back in school. I've been to Rome 9 times since 1984. I hope I will be able to visit just one more time.
Avoid visiting in the summer if you can and also at Christmas time. In the summer the heat and humidity in Rome can be so brutal plus you have to fight the crowds wherever you go. There are also big crowds at Christmas time and if it’s a Jubilee year which begins on New Year’s every 25 years; 2025 is the next one. I’m not a fan of big crowds. Spring and Autumn are much less crowded times to visit and the temperatures are much more moderate. Prices are lower for everything during the off season too. The humid cold in the winter goes right through you, and it’s difficult to get and stay warm even if you wear warm clothes, socks and shoes. This doesn’t just apply to Rome. If you’re planning to visit Pompeii or Herculaneum to the south of Rome or Tuscany and Umbria to the north take warm clothing, especially if you’re going to be outside most of the time like at Herculaneum or Pompeii. Rome is a great place to visit! I’d go back in a heartbeat!
It's like a train station.
It’s both ridiculously beautiful and completely revolting at the same time.
Investors should invest in French Pepin and Charlemagne project land and temple use for a donation to the Pope in Italy for their religious activities.
I enjoy listening to the content but I do not enjoy a bit of the video. It moves so fast that you cannot enjoy the sight of the building anytime it moves. It makes me dizzy the way it was shot.
apologies, the footage was taken without the intention to make these informative small documentaries in mind, it was only later when I decided to make these because I love history. I am aiming to go back within a year and going through all the places again with a much more slower conservative camera work to make more videos on more topics.
The Pope's escape route just like corrupt politicians .
The narration is by a robot which can't tell the difference between 'record' and 'record' (noun and verb), or 'lead' and 'lead'. Hire a voice artist, you cheapskates.
Stop saying fuck
