Although the Pope is, of course, most associated with St. Peter's, Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano (Basilica of St. John Lateran) is the official cathedral of the Pope, in his role as Bishop of Rome. This Baroque basilica incredible and is definitely worth a visit, perhaps not on your first trip to Rome, but on another visit. It is filled with relics, an ancient baptistry, a beautiful cloister dating back to the 13th century and large, detailed sculptures of each of the 12 apostles. The central bronze doors are originals from the Senate House in the Imperial Forum. The High Altar is used only by the Pope. Note: You are required to cover shoulders and knees when visiting here. Admission is free. The San Giovanni metro stop is near the basilica.

    On the left side of the church, there is also an entrance to the monastery, whose walkway is surrounded by ancient relics in four corners of the wall. The Monastery Garden is also an ideal place to take family photos. Parts of San Giovanni have vending machines that can buy water and cappuccino coffee at very low prices.

    The scenery here is so beautiful! The spring water is clear like a mirror, and the mountains are full of colorful wild flowers. It is really like a beautiful landscape painting against the blue sky and white clouds.

    This hall has a very long history, and it has a history of hundreds of years. Everything can be called the same and the murals here are particularly beautiful and beautiful. After so many years, they have not been destroyed at all.

    The most distinctive feature of this temple is the underground palace (the ticket-selling part), under which there is a church, but at the bottom is the ancient Roman temple, which is also built in Beijing, Xizhimen or Fucheng Gate. It is found that there is a gate of the Yuan Dynasty underground.

    The St. Gremens Temple in Lateran, Italy, is a free visit without tickets. I especially like the murals here. They are very beautiful, artistic, and a very good scenic spot.
