  1. Travel Around The World

Rome Italy

The Vatican City is situated entirely within the city of Rome, sprawling over a hill west of the River Tiber, and separated from the rest of the city by a wall. Vatican City comprises St Peter’s Church, St Peter’s Square, the Vatican and the Vatican Gardens.

The Vatican City is famous for its magnificent St Peter’s Basilica. Near St Peter’s stands the Vatican Palace, the Pope’s residence. Among the principal features of the Palace are the Stanze, the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Museum, containing major works of art and valuable pictures.

We visited Vatican city with the help of our guide Chad. He lives in Rome now and is from Colorado. His aunt and uncle live where we live in Cumberland Cove.

We also visited the Colosseum but didn't have time to go inside. We had to be back to the ship or get left behind. We had to take a train to and from Rome as our ship was docked in Civitavecchia which is about an hour or so away.
