  • It is located in San Pietro in Vincoli: you should go to this church only to see this.
    It was part of the Julius II tomb. You know ... Julius II was Miguel Angelo mecenas and they both were always fighting!
    Miguel Angelo said when he saw a stone he could see the sculpture inside it and he only had to withdraw parts of the stone to take out the sculpture .... he was an artist!
    Stand in front of this sculpture and try to see the movement ...

  • On top of this hill there is a monument for Garibaldi. I like very much Garibaldi's history: he was a General and conquered more than half of Italy. At the end of his life, when he had Italy at his feet, he offered it to Victor Enmanuelle II: the King of Italy at that time. And the result was the first time in history that Italy was united!
