Citta Del Vaticano - Vatican Museum

taken from the St Peter's church's dome

The Vatican Museum is a must visit place in Vatican City because there is just too much things to see. It took us 2 straight hours to complete the tour in the museum(make sure to wear your comfy shoe).

The price is 19Euro for adult and 12Euro for student(so remember to bring your student card lo)*but this is the price for the night at the museum. The day ticket is 15Euro for adult and 8Euro for student. An additional 7 Euro if u wish to have a audio guide. Every last Sunday of each month the museum is open to everyone for free, so plan your trip ahead if you wish to save up the entrance fee *make sure your schedule isn't tight because don't want to be wasting time waiting in the queue.

One of my favorite is The Sistine Chapel but they do not allow anyone to take photos, but if u wish to see, just go to http://mv.vatican.va/3_EN/pages/CSN/CSN_Main.html to get a virtual visit.

after 40 minutes queue outside, finally i'm in!!! ><


reminds me of a movie "night at the museum" Octavius....hehe

this is a giant bronze pine cone.
I think it's a friendship gift from Egypt to The Vatican
