Sistine Chapel

Sistine Chapel Approx. Time: 1 hours
Activity Level: Easiest


The Sistine Chapel is absolutely the most famous chapel in the history of the world, and for good reason. This incredible (and fairly overwhelming) masterwork is stunning in its complexity, detail, and beauty. The recent cleaning has revealed startlingly beautiful and vibrant colors lush with detail and vividness. It took Michelangelo four years to fresco the over 10,000 square feet of the ceiling and wall (The Last Judgment). To experience the Sistine Chapel is to witness perhaps the finest artistic creation in the history of Christianity.
