  5. Santi Apostoli

    20 min Admission not included

    A wonderful Basilica with an original Christian chapel underneath, where apostles Jacob and Philip are buried. A wonderful opportunity to take some amazing shots also of Roman frescos.

  6. San Pietro in Vincoli

    20 min Admission not included

    This is an outstanding church, despite its very austere appearance, quite different than many Baroque and Renaissance churches in Rome. Though, besides its pure, simple beauty, it is worth to have a stop in San Pietro in Vincoli because here we can photograph one of Michelangelo's masterpieces: The Moses.
