This is getting boring, again there are Lovely Buildings & Architecture the opulence is amazing, just stroll around enjoy the art, the models depicting how it was all done and don't miss the doors .and war time photos of the destruction

I'm not greatly enthused by churches but this gives St Peters in Rome a run for its money. Fortunately there aren't as many tourists crammed in as there are at St Peters so a better experience.

than its the place to be. Amazing colors and pictures. With a good quality camera, you can create miracles there.
