Jesus washing the disciple's feet - Vatican City

Visiting St. Peter's basilica was my favorite sight while visiting Rome. It's not the most beautiful church I have been in, but obviously the largest. I visited St. Peter's twice, both early in the morning, and there were different services going on throughout the basilica, all I can say is that there is nothing better than having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Best sight in Rome
Cons:It is very crowded after 10am
In a nutshell:Nothing compared to the true beauty in heaven I am sure
