Vatican City
The Vatican City, one of the most sacred places in
Christendom, attests to a great history and a formidable spiritual
venture. A unique collection of artistic and architectural masterpieces
lie within the boundaries of this small state. At its centre is St
Peter's Basilica, with its double colonnade and a circular piazza in
front and bordered by palaces and gardens. The basilica, erected over
the tomb of St Peter the Apostle, is the largest religious building in
the world, the fruit of the combined genius of Bramante, Raphael,
Michelangelo, Bernini and Maderno.
