Saint Peter

St. Peter's Basilica is considered to be the icon of the Christendom. Together with the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museums, St. Peter's Square and the Vatican Gardens, it is located in the smallest state of Europe: the Vatican City, with less than 1,000 inhabitants. The Basilica might be defined a collection of masterpieces: the dome designed by Michelangelo, the facade and square designed by Bernini, the bronze statue of Pieta also by Michelangelo just to name some. Thousands of people can fit in St. Peter's Square, with its magnificent colonnades which resemble long open arms inviting the believers to join the functions. Guided tours are available to visit the Church, the Chapel and the Museums. Our choice of apartments in St. Peter's area, walking distance from St. Angel's Castle and Piazza Navona, is perfectly suitable for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the city center and be able to reach the Roman nightlife easily but without being too close to the busiest streets.
