1. The Vatican Museums are among the most visited art museums in the world. This massive complex of 24 galleries, or rooms, includes a treasure trove of Renaissance masterpieces and other fascinating collections. It is easy to get overwhelmed by all that there is to see, so it is important to plan ahead. Purchasing a skip the line Vatican Museum ticket in advance allows you to bypass the long lines at the entrance and waltz right into the museums with no waiting. You will still have to go through security checks and show your printed or digital voucher (along with a valid photo ID) at the entrance, but you’ll avoid the lengthy wait time that is a common sight at the museum during peak season.

2. After journeying through the Vatican Museums’ extraordinary galleries, visitors are led into the magnificent Sistine Chapel—the Pope’s private place of worship and a crowning jewel of Renaissance art. Looking skyward, one encounters Michelangelo’s legendary ceiling, where The Creation of Adam immortalizes the powerful moment of divine connection. On the altar wall, his dramatic fresco The Last Judgement dominates the space, portraying a vivid and emotional vision of the final reckoning. More than just a visual marvel, the Sistine Chapel offers a deeply moving experience—an encounter with the spiritual and artistic brilliance of Michelangelo.

3. Positioned prominently in the Cortile della Pigna at the Vatican Museums, Sfera con Sfera (Sphere within a Sphere) is a captivating bronze creation by celebrated Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro. Comprising two fractured, nested spheres that reveal intricate, gear-like interiors, the sculpture evokes a sense of mechanical precision and hidden complexity. Reflecting the fragility and intricacy of the modern world, this thought-provoking work is part of Pomodoro’s long-standing series begun in the early 1960s, which delves into themes of technological evolution, inner conflict, and the precarious balance of global systems.

About Rome

Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.

Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
