Immense, beautiful and worth its status as a world iconic location - even for those non-religious this gives the impact it was meant to do.

Given that it is free, and all it costs is the 40+ minute queue, I heartily recommend visiting. The cathedral is huge and will take about 1 to 2 hours to visit. I found it much more pleasant than the Sistine Chapel, which does not have the same level of grandeur as St Peter’s Basilica. Given its size, the vast...

Amazing in architecture and visual effects but when you think how much was exploited by the church over the years and how much was deprived from humanity to build it,it takes away a lot.Certainly worth a visit if in Rome and the Vatican.

I did the 1pm Viator.com Skip the line tour that included the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. Its 3 hours long and costs 32 euros plus the entrance fee (21 euros?).

I am not religious but the Vatican City moved me all round. It has a special calm and peace about it that I have never experienced before which is difficult to describe. Eerie silence but I didn't find it uncomfortable just unusual. Obviously you have to go inside the Basilica which is magnificent. Overall you have to go and see...

One of the most important places in the Church. A must see. Massive. Afternoons ave no lines. If you can, go to mass or say confession here. Must park strollers.

It's almost impossible to describe the grand nature of this basilica. It's huge, but that's only a part of what makes it special. The art is spectacular. The architecture is awe inspiring. The workmanship is beyond belief. If you have an opportunity, go there and experience it for yourself.
