Rome 21 March Saturday - Vatican Museum, Vatican City

went to Colosseum and surrounding in the morning and Vatican Museum after that, but anyway shall upload the museum photos firs

Vatican Museum's really reeeeeally huge, guide from Rome the night before said if you spent 3min (eh i don't really rmb the exact time) at each work of art in the museum, you'll need 3years (this number's right) to cover everything

you'd think he's exaggerating, until you really visit the museum






i think my friend got tired of taking pics after a while, but that's understandable, in the sense that there's too many things.. so this post is in no way representative of the museum

all en route to the..
(i think this is the Gallery of Maps or smth like that.. sorry was a long time ago.. actually not really but.. wells)


oops as i was saying all en route to..
the Sistine Chapel! i dunno why my friend didn't take a pic of the chapel itself, but anyway this is the original Michelango's Creation of Adam
Flemish art Prof saif smth about the paintings along the frescoes of the Chapel, like everyone goes to the Sistine Chapel to look at the ceiling but neglects the frescoes, but i forgot what he said.. tsk guess it's high time to start reviewing notes, but it's Easter next week
