Saint Peter's Basilica

ChurchRomeAbout 1.5 hours

The largest church in the world, and the reason most itineraries give the Vatican a morning of its own. Free to enter with a long security queue; the dome climb is separate, paid, and gives the definitive view over the square and the city. Shoulders and knees must be covered — enforced at the door, without exception, in any weather.
