After walking a few steps, Zhang Feng saw the famous "Scratcher" sculpture, which is like a tour guide guiding Zhang Feng on the sculpture journey of the Vatican Museums.

"Remnant Body" is also the treasure of the town. It is an ancient Greek statue, because the volume is not large, it does not look conspicuous, but after careful observation, Zhang Feng still sees that the level is extraordinary, even if only the broken arm and body are left, it can still give people a unique vitality and beauty. It is said that Michelangelo was deeply influenced by this ancient Greek sculpture, so most of the sculptures and paintings of the characters throughout his life were large with large waists, bulging muscles, and unusually developed limbs.

"The River God of the Tigris". The vase held by the river god in his right hand is closely viewed to contain the head of a lion cub, which is believed to be a tribute to Emperor Leo X (Latin for lion).

The circular exhibition hall, in addition to the magnificent sculptures, is also very appreciative of its own architecture, and its dome is a sight.

The heavyweight collection in the Ancient Egyptian Pavilion, mummies dating back more than 3,000 years.

There are also many dead corpses, the quality is a dry corpse, black, no package, Zhang Feng always feels wrong when he looks at it, not every museum that is not in Egypt has such a heavy collection, the Vatican deserves to be one of the oldest museums.

Come to the Tapestry Pavilion. On the walls are several ancient tapestries depicting the life of Jesus, each one hundreds of years old, all of which were hand-woven by workers at the time, because there was no machine weaving technology at that time.

Entering the Map Pavilion, Zhang Feng was immediately attracted by the dazzling gorgeous golden vault of the local tyrant.

The Atlas contains maps from all over Italy, commissioned by Emperor Gregory XIII to be painted on the walls by Ignazio Danti, who spent three years completing 40 map paintings.

Halfway through, Zhang Feng saw the atrium of the Vatican Museums from the window.

After walking a short distance, Zhang Feng came to Raphael's studio, where the ceiling and surroundings of the studio were covered with masterpieces by masters, the most famous of which were "The School of Athens", "The Eucharistic Controversy", "The Three Virtues", "Mount Parnassus", etc., these murals reflect Raphael's sectarian friendship and world view, and also established Raphael's position in the history of world painting.

The School of Athens, one of Raphael's greatest works. The painting depicts an intimate conversation between Plato and Aristotle, with a tall architectural arch that spreads out in depth as a backdrop, and the hall is filled with famous scholars from different eras, regions and schools, from thinkers of the past to celebrities of the present. The tall man at the front of the stairs is said to be Michelangelo, who was working on the frescoes for the Sistine Junction at the time. The style of the painting is more spectacular, the colors are more intense, and the focus of the depiction of the figure is more prominent.

At the end of the museum is the Sistine Chapel, where people sit and stand quietly admiring the frescoes on the walls and the dome, including Michelangelo's most representative monumental frescoes "Genesis" and "The Last Judgment". It was also the chapel of the Emperor, and later it became the place where the Emperor was elected, which shows that the solemnity is extraordinary. Therefore, it is not allowed to take pictures here, and Zhang Feng only knew that he was not allowed to take pictures after taking pictures, but fortunately, the staff gave a smile, expressed understanding, and let Zhang Feng go.

After Zhang Feng came out of the museum, the exit is the famous double-storey spiral staircase, from the work of Momo in 1932, the peculiarity of this spiral staircase is that it will make people produce visual errors, it seems to be a walkway to the end, but it is actually a double-decker, and the entrance is also separated from two places, but because the museum only opens one entrance, there are tourists on only one floor, and there is no one in the other circle.

After coming out of the Vatican Museums, there was a long line for N long and finally entered the Church of St. Peter. Because Dajiaotang is free, there is no way to buy tickets in advance to make an appointment or anything, Zhang Feng can only queue up honestly.

The church was originally built by Emperor Constantine in 323-326 AD on the tomb of St. Peter, also known as the Old St. Peter's church. In the 16th century, Emperor Julio II decided to rebuild St. Peter's Church, which began in 1506 and was completed 120 years later in 1626.

On the left side of the façade is the statue of St. Peter, and the pilasters on the front are in the ancient Greek Coslinian style.

Entering St. Peter's Church, it was afternoon, and three pillars of light shot in through the top window, and the sense of sacredness was bursting. The feeling is only shock, the shock of capitalization, the feeling that the whole soul has been cleansed, and it also adds to the mystery.

The lighting of the dome emphasizes the contrast between dark and light, and the design features rose windows with beautiful patterns and reliefs around and at the top.

I'm afraid it's exquisite, gorgeous and spectacular, and it's hard to describe it. I think the position of St. Peter's in the hearts of the disciples of God is similar to the weight of the Potala Palace in the hearts of Tibetans. The total area of the church is 23,000 square meters, and it can accommodate 30,000 people to pray at the same time

Zhang Feng looked up at Michelangelo's dome and felt that everything in the lobby seemed so small. With a circumference of 71 meters and a height of 137 meters, the dome is also the highest point in the entire city of Rome.

There are also many famous reliefs and statues decorated in Jiaotang, which is very artistic.

Michelangelo's "Saint = Mother", the grief of the saint = mother holding her dead son and the sense of obedience to God's will are vividly portrayed in the work.

The hall is in the shape of a traditional ten=glyph, and in the center is Bernini's greatest masterpiece, the bronze canopy. The young Benigni was commissioned by Urban VIII to complete the first work for St. Peter's Communion. It is located in the middle of the ten = characters in Jiaotang, like crowning the Jiaohuang altar, and below the Jiaohuang altar is the tomb of St. Peter.

The choirs on the left and right sides sang in it, and the beautiful singing voices slowly echoed in the church, which was really a holy place for the pilgrimage of Christ and the apostles.

Zhang Feng originally wanted to climb to the top of the dome, but the dome was closed too late, and the rules were the rules, so Zhang Feng had to come again tomorrow, sighing, there was always a little bit of loss.

When you leave the court, you can easily see the Swiss Guard, the defender of the Vatican. In particular, the Renaissance-style uniforms of the guards are the main attraction. Zhang Feng inquired, and their clothes weighed more than seven kilograms, and each piece was tailored to the body of the team members. The modern uniform was designed in 1914 by Jules Repond, the captain of the Swiss Guards at the time, and the claims circulating online that it was designed for Michelangelo are false.
