Back to photo listing Before we explored Rome proper, we had an excursion to the Vatican City. The relief is actually a flat painting which is skillfully painted to give the impression of depth. One of these options is the right one. :) A view of St. Peter's Square. Inside of St. Peter's basilica. One of the Swiss guard. St. Peter's Square. The fountain in the middle of St. Peter's Square. Peter, Devon, Adam, and our tour guide Barbara. Mom and Dad in the square.
