For my mom`s birthday I bought us flight tickets to Rome as a surprise. On that trip we saw the Sistine Chapel. Unfortunately you are not allowed to take pictures, so I did not take this picture my self. It is an awesome sight though.

Sistine Chapel
Sistine Chapel is the best-known chapel in the Apostolic Palace, the official residence of the Pope in Vatican City. It is famous for its architecture, evocative of Solomon's Temple of the Old Testament, and its decoration that has been frescoed throughout by the greatest Renaissance artists including Michelangelo, Raphael, Bernini, and Sandro Botticelli. Under the patronage of Pope Julius II, Michelangelo painted 12,000 square feet (1,100 m) of the chapel ceiling between 1508 and 1512.
