Rome churches. More to it than Vatican City!
Rome is packed with beautiful churches, whose purpose goes way beyond that of being places of worship. Churches in Rome are a fantastic example of architecture and art, and inside you will be able to spot mosaics, paintings and frescoes, sculptures and much more.
Most of the churches in town are free to visit – which is prefect if you are planning a budget trip. Some are best visited on guided tours, for the art inside can be overwhelming otherwise.

Basilica di Santa Maria - Rome
this is full of history and especially for religious visits. Beautiful architectural and full of history. One of the oldest and important shrines in the world. You need to give yourself around 2-3 hours to explore. You must wear appropriate clothing to visit inside. There are long queues so it best to visit early in the morning and book online to make the waiting time short. #rome #church
