Book Description
Visiting the Vatican Museums is a truly unique experience. It is such an amazing place with such an abundance of artwork. Some of the most famous pieces of art in the world can be found there. Be amazed by the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo and enjoy the beautiful frescos of Raphael. There are statues from Roman times, paintings from artists as different as Giotto, Leonardo and Caravaggio and so much more. In fact, the museums are enormous. It can be quite overwhelming. What's worse, the museums were never built as museums. The artworks are displayed in the rooms and halls that were once used by the Pope and his court. This is why most of the museum is one direction only. Moreover, mass tourism has caused the amount of visitors to the museums to spike in recent years. Many people stand in line for hours outside, just to be able to visit the museums. In this guidebook, I will try to show you the best way to visit the museums and I will tell you all the stories and details about the most important works in the museums. In addition, I'll give you essential tips for visiting the museums. I've worked for many years as a guide inside the museums. This is truly a special place. I have put all that I have learned in these years in this book. I hope it will help to make your visit to the museums an unforgettable experience.
