Daren J Western European wild: the game Europa (3) from the soul of Rome Italy

Pantheon West walk about 5 minutes, even the night is jam-packed Navona (Piazza Navona).

Navona is hailed as the most beautiful square in Rome, she assumes the elongated shape, built three fountain, in the middle of the most famous "Fountain of four rivers" (Fontana del Fiumi) is Italy sculptor Bernini (Bernini) works in sculpture at the pool, four full of masculine beauty of male nude statue, outflow of four stocks qingquan, symbol of the Nile River, the Danube, the Ganges, the Paraná River four rivers. Navona is world famous, in addition to these perfect personified the attractiveness of artistic masterpieces, but also because one evening palanquins crowd, pub, night scene is exquisite.

It may be too tired, we leave the Navona is decided by bus today plan last spots — Spain square, the famous Spagna Steps.

Because Navona is no subway, we had to go back to the branch cable Street, find a bus stop waiting for the bus. But the bus stop where pure gibberish like yidalizhan name we complained, so in a kind of an equivalent car Granny active for us the way. She does not know English, spent approximately can let her drink a cup of coffee, with a wonder she talking about language and a lot of body language and finally let us understand that went to Spain square to sit 45 bus station in the Tritone. Gosh! thank goodness, we finally understood the "listen". Wait 45 road cars to get on the bus, in automatic dapiao machine hit the ticket, and Italy were sitting together. The Tritone station we alighted from the Spagna Steps there is also a short distance, again, we as the people that came to a very high density of visitors, "Roman holiday" important lens point — Spain square (Piazza di Spagna). Not here to play, there is no equivalent to taste the Roman is life. As the "Roman holiday" Audrey Hepburn in the wishing pool • nearby beauty salons where the hair cut after the first go is the art of Spain square. She spent in this buy, eat ice cream and watching the crowd scenes make it become the world flocked to one of the important reasons; up to 137 level, leading to the Trinita dei Monti Church of stone steps more to come, have sat on the stairs and enjoy the sunshine and noisy. You only have to be here, as everywhere fried chestnut aromas drifting into the bustling crowd, looking for the Romans that free, good at exaggerated way of life, to be truly in Rome. Square opposite there is a famous street, you can once again enjoy Rome shopping pleasure, of course, as long as you have money.

(Spain square, is a bustling, probably are passed to this search for Hepburn footprints?!)

From step down later, quite enough to look at the time was only 6 points in the evening, it was still very beautiful, so we decided to go ahead and visit the Vatican State.

Of course, want to visit the St. Peter's Cathedral or the Vatican museums is certainly not enough time there, we just want to eat a dinner near the Vatican and St. Peter's Cathedral and enjoy the night. So we take MTR from LineaA-Spagna sat Ottaviano, down is Atsumi Octavian Street (Via Ottaviano), walk to the South is the St. Peter's square. We find the perimeter of a pizzeria (Italy everywhere this shop, equivalent to the café, but it certainly Italy pizza), sit down, take a look at the menu, a good scary, a Pizza will receive 5 euro, but think of the hungry and no intestinal Gulu, into the night, the first question to the right, in any case there are outside can looking cool Chair street side dining, also quite enjoyable. Called two pizza, two Cola we sat down. St. Peter's Cathedral of circular dome on our doorstep, ate almost a clock to see if the table has 20: 30 at night, but because the European latitudes high, particularly long summer sunshine, this is still in the sky, the clear cloudless sunny sky.

Anyway, go for a day, people really quite tired, then sit back.

21: 15 or so, the night finally came, we had a tent to spread attitude walk to St Peter's square in the city. The front wall is the territory of the State of Vatican City, inside the Vatican really is? the mystery of the Catholic States as seen on TV so magical? we crossed the Vatican City, surrounded by the walls of stone and walk with Eclipse with my eyes until I walked into the door completely, double-pedal in St. Peter's square on granite, parquet, everything suddenly clear: huge a square, each side has a shape of the fountain, the promenade around the semicircle there are 4 columns total 284 root more Lee on movable cylinder, cylinder above is 140 Saints like. The center of the square, is a year for 40 years from Egypt shipment on huge cylindrical, 25.5 meters high, weighs 320 tons, the top is a great cross, proudly stand at St. Peter's square. This statue of the Vatican's treasured sword like a piece of the Earth's axis pins to sacrosanct posture stands in Catholic belief in the universe. Although Vatican area is very small, only 0.44 km2, yet the Imperial Palace in Beijing 2/3, but for the world's Catholics, his component in each of the millions of Christians came to the Vatican papal pilgrimage and worship. Of course, the Vatican's most important buildings, also does not describe, but do not have any text descriptions or needs more explanation, I present this seat has a large dome, injects the entire building is a perfect symmetrical cross of sacred stunner is all Catholics flock to St. Peter's Basilica (Basilica di San Pietro). He is the Church of the Holy See/Vatican City, Is the world's largest Catholic Church. Church of OES 50 000 of people, Michelangelo, Raphael, and other masters of common masterpiece. We at St. Peter's square for a walk and talk, unknowingly, St. Peter's Cathedral bells tolled 12, with a pleasant mood back to the hotel, tomorrow, we will be again, to the heaven of this piece of sacred treasure at all in the open.

I stood in front of St. Peter's Cathedral, a long time to wonder at his dignity and beauty, suddenly felt it myself.

He is just artists wonderful piece of treasure, a Catholic. In the night of diffuse and charm of the Moonlight, St. Peter's square is a quiet, peaceful, I suddenly seemed to understand the Bible interpretation of the world, understanding of the Lord Jesus in all the faithful hearts exists.
