The visit of Castel Sant'Angelo (Hadrian's Mausoleum) is a truly experience through the centuries to better understand the development of the city of Rome from the imperial time to the present time. The monument was built of the Emperor Hadrian and with the time became at first a fortress and later on a residence for the Popes. It is considered a symbol of Rome’s imperial power and Pope’s power. During the visit we can see the transformation of the building from monumental tomb to a fortress and a residence. We are going to hear and see the secret places and the several stories related to the building that was connected to the Pope’s palaces through a secret corridor called ‘’Passetto di Borgo’’, an escape route to guarantee the safety of the Pope. After visiting the Castle, cross Borgo Pio and along the Vatican Walls we will reach the place where in a relaxing atmosphere you can sip a good glass of Italian wine and taste typical Roman cuisine, not to be missed when visiting Rome!

Rome used to call it, is also known as Passetto di Borgo, or Passetto. It corresponds to that raised and fortified section of the Vatican Walls that from the Apostolic Palace of the Vatican, starting from behind the colonnade by Bernini runs along via dei Corridori and via Borgo Sant'Angelo and ends in Castel Sant'Angelo.

In totale il colonnato comprende 284 colonne di ordine dorico, ciascuna alta sedici metri. Le colonne sono disposte su quattro file in modo da creare tre corsie. La corsia centrale è carrabile, mentre le due laterali sono percorribili esclusivamente a piedi.

St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, the heart of Catholicism and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the largest churches in the world (23,000 square meters). Built between 1506 and 1626, it features a majestic Michelangelo dome, a façade by Maderno, and an interior with Bernini's Baldachin, housing masterpieces such as Michelangelo's Pietà.
