Vatican City

Jeff and I toured Vatican City and also walked past it a few times during our stay in Rome. I was surprised how central it is in Rome. We did the ill advised thing and bought our tickets to tour the museum and Sistine Chapel online last minute. We had zero lines! Maybe we got lucky but it seems like doing the afternoon tour was less crowded. The museum had so many Egyptian artifacts which I was not expecting. I love everything ancient Egypt so I was really excited. My favorite part about Vatican City was definitely the Sistine Chapel. Whether you're religious or not, it's a stunning and peaceful building. It's absolutely gorgeous and the emotion jumps off the walls. Some of my favorite Italy photos were taken at Vatican City!
