| Cute little dragon fountain near the Vatican - must be old, because he was drooling and seems to have some problems down below as well!!  St Peter's Basilica at the Vatican - see the ring at the top of the dome?................ 
.........there are people standing up there, getting what is supposed to be the best view over Rome.
It should be, St Peter's is the tallest building in the city

Castel Sant' Angelo as it looked when first built as a mausoleum for Emperor Hadrian View from the top looking down the Tiber River  The Vatican as seem from an opening atop Castel Sant' Angelo  Decorated ceiling of a walk way around the outside of the castle.  |
Statue of Michael the Archangel atop the Castel
Section of marble from top of the original building

Well inside the Castel
Crossbow/catapult and stones
It's still a long way down
