Saint Peters Basilica






Saint Peters is the biggest Catholic church in the world. Next to it is the apartments of the Pope. The church is inside the Popes city wich is called the Vatican.

The church has lots of stones in it. Marble, granite, and many more. Inside the Basilica is the Pieta a sculpter done by Micheal Angelo. It's of Mary holding up the dead Jesus. It's very beautiful.

On top of the Basilica is a very large dome. We went to the top. We took an elevator then we went up 300 stairs. Rome looks lovely from up there. Well once I caught my breath from all the stairs it looked lovely.
