What travelers say:
It was a pre-favorite, a place that was at least unknown to me personally, a little like a cabinet with a tent in the court, in the visual center of the church, almost black.

Baldacchino di San Pietro, di Bernini Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
St. Peter (Baldacchinodi San Pietro) under the canopy, also known as the bronze canopy, was completed by Bernini himself, and it is also one of the three outstanding treasures in the church collection, second only to Michelangelo's "Saint". The semi-circular balustrade in front of the canopy is permanently lit with 99 lanterns, and below it is the altar where the Pope holds mass, facing the rising sun in the east and holding the mass in front of the pilgrims. On both sides of the altar, there is a large pipe organ. When Mass is held, a low, soothing and beautiful melody is issued from the pipe organ, filling the entire hall.

From the top ring walkway inside St Peter's Basilica, overlooking the interior of the entire Basilica, the absolute shocking vision, you are so close to the dome and the Renaissance masters, so far from the world...
St. Peter's Basilica is divided into bronze Hua cover, below is St. Peter's remains are Bernini's masterpiece, really magnificent, worthy of the world's largest Catholic church, the main altar of the Holy Spirit is inviolable, perfect!
