As I said in my last post here are some photos of the
Basilica di San Pietro (In English,
Saint Peter's Basilica). As you can see bellow, even from a certain distance, the view of the basilica is absolutely amazing.
Above, a photo taken from the start of the
Via della Conciliazione (a street that takes you directly from
Castel Sant'Angelo to the
Basilica and bellow, one taken at the entrance of the
Cittá del Vaticano.
Bellow a view from the
Maderno's facade, with his giant Corinthian columns and the statues of Jesus, John the Baptist, and eleven of the apostles.
In the last photo, a view from the
St. Peter's Piazza (In English,
St. Peter's Plaza) where you can see, to the right and to the left, the large set of columns that goes all around the plaza and in the center the Egyptian obelisk and the two fountains that complete it.
Coming in my next post, the photos from the interior of the
Basilica.
