MUSEI VATICANI
Go there and contact
A museum complex exhibiting an impressive collection of artworks in Rome.
The Vatican Museums are a must for all visitors to Rome, with almost 7 kilometers of galleries and almost 1,400 rooms filled with works of art. There's no need to explain in detail that a complete visit to this extraordinary museum space - commissioned by Pope Julius II in the early 16th century - could easily occupy an entire day, but to discover the essentials of the collection, 3 or 4 hours might do the trick. The Sistine Chapel and Raphael's chambers are only accessible via a single passageway (to channel visitors).
To get into the museums, note above all that the queue is always very long, sometimes even reaching 2 or 3 hours: the Vatican Museums are visited by over 6 million people every year. To save time, remember to book your tickets online for a fixed time (you'll have to pay an additional booking fee of €5). Then go directly to the ticket office to collect your tickets. Also, at lunchtime, waiting times are often slightly shorter. Alternatively, you can book a group visit in advance to ensure quicker access. Finally, if you'd like to discover this unique site, which we've listed in order of visit below, please note that there are several options: guided tour, night visit, visit + breakfast before opening, visit + lunch...

Avoir la chance de le découvrir en "earliest" est un privilège très appréciable surtout pour la chapelle Sixtine
Visite inévitable et dans de merveilleuses conditions
cet endroit est incroyable.
décue cependant par la chapelle sixtine.
peut etre parce que je ne ml'attendais pas à ca ou parce qu'on en prend tellement plein les yeux avant ...
