I am Catholic, so Vatican City State is like a second home! Our hotel room in the Hotel Michelangelo had a wonderful view of the Dome of St. Peter's Basilica! The Vatican Museum is a must see! Viva Benedict XVI!

Three years ago, I received an invitation to attend Mass at S. Peter Church in the Vatican, on St. Joseph Day (19 March). It was the Name Feast of the Holy Father Benedict XVI (born Joseph Ratzinger). I was very impressed to see the Holy Father from such a short distance. An experience i will never forget.

This is one of the most beautiful places I've been to! There's plenty to do in the area that doesn't have to do with religion too! My biggest recommendation: go at night, it is surreal and you can avoid the daytime crowds. Beautiful.

all i thought was about the Christmas misa when i first stepped into the piazza st. pietro. i used to see it on tv but then i experienced it by myself. many tourists on hot hot heat summer. the interior was amazing, lots of great arts standing. from statues, sculptures, paintings, the ceiling and windows are magnificent. even the guards are such a charm. but too bad i didn't go to the tomb cos of my limited time.

Vatican City in Vatican, most of us mistaken that this is part of Rome(italy), and honestly I do not even know if I am still in Italy or Vatican during our daytrip what matter most is seeing the St Peter' Basilica and the six chapels of course, the rest Italy can claim. It is also good to tease those swiss guard after the tour to the greattombs...

The smallest city within a city. A must see if you are in Rome. A busy place and can be reach through public transportation. I also went to attend the 12:00 PM Sunday mass by Pope Benedict at the St Peter's square.

Very small and quite state. Very long queue if you are late for visit of the Apostolic Palace where the Pope lives.
