Vatican Spirit Walk: From St. Peter’s Square to the Hidden Gate

Vaticano

Step into the living heart of the Vatican, where faith, art, and eternity converge. Begin beneath the columns of St. Peter’s Square, trace the path from Michelangelo’s Pietà to the sacred tomb below, and rise to the Dome for Rome’s most awe-inspiring view. Continue through the Vatican’s artistic wonders — the Sistine Chapel, Raphael’s Rooms, and ancient galleries — before departing through a quiet gate known only to few. This journey reveals the Vatican’s soul, from its monumental heart to its most intimate corners.
