I would pass by this church every day on my way to school, and it always took my breath away. The facade is not as extravagant as some other churches in Rome, but just knowing that it is one of the oldest of its kind is impressive enough. The square is great to sit in and people watch, since it's a nice mixture of tourists and neighborhood residents going about their day. Aside from the annoying peddlers, this church is a must-see in Rome.

    It’s not very publicised but it’s one of the most beautiful churches in Rome and the entire world. Prepare yourself to walk with head up, as the ceilings are a work of art. There’s not a corner in here that doesn’t deserve do be admired.Truly worth it

    The front of the church is a bell tower, the interior is Renaissance-style plaid flat, surrounded by frescoes from the fifth century mosaics, and has a variety of styles since it has been renovated many times.

    The Cathedral of Notre Dame Majeor is really close to the Temini train station, so the train came here to visit. Entering the church requires security checks. The level of the church is still very high! It is also a boutique collection, an eye-opener, the church is really gorgeous and majestic.

    Legend has it that in the midsummer of the 4th century A.D., the Virgin Mary Tomon gave Pope Libero a monastery to show the glory of the Virgin Mary where it snowed. As a result, snow fell on Mount Esquilino the next morning, and the Pope ordered people to build a church there, so the church was also known as the Notre Dame Snow Palace. Today, the church also has activities to sprinkle white rose petals to symbolize the Holy site. It is also the first church named after the Virgin Mary in the world. The current Pope visits the Virgin Mary Hall before and after his visit to China. The church was built in about the fourth century A.D. The dome depicts the coronation of the Virgin Mary. The oil painting depicts the scene of the birth of the Virgin Mary.
