Incredible. Cannot put words into how beautiful the art is here. It is always busy and packed with people but if you take your time and submerse yourself in the art and not the business and crowds it will be one of the best experiences of your life without a doubt. Love it wish I could spend a while week here. Get a private tour it is well worth the money.
Absolutely beautiful place to visit, very busy though but we was able to stop for a few minutes to take it all in
This is one of best parts tk see in Vatican City in my opinion . The golden scenery and all the details literally make you feel in heaven . The gallery is basically presenting old maps of regions in Italy made by people a long time ago (renaissance and even before ) . It is said that they had an 85% accuracy considering the fact that they only used their maths and simple geometry in order to create a map which is acutely amazing .
The Gallery is part of the Vatican Museums. Very beautiful and huge. The ceilings, floors and walls are all covered in amazing, beautiful and stunning art work. Worth stopping by and admiring every bit of it. Totally recommended.
Really beautiful - you hardly know where to look, even the floors are meticulously decorated in beautiful patterns!
Beutiful maps from the 16th century! Was my favorite part of the whole museum.
