Sistine Chapel as you've never seen it

Between high school and starting school at Baylor University, I took a year off and studied abroad in France. In the spring, I got the opportunity to travel to Italy for three weeks and see many cities. Visiting the Vatican was amazing, but I made the mistake of visiting on their once-a-month "Free Admission Sunday." Whew, talk about crowded lines!

My visit to the Sistine Chapel, crowds included (2004)

A friend just e-mailed me this great link of the Sistine Chapel's interior, and it is amazing to see. It's a virtual tour of the chapel when it is completely empty—something you'll never experience in person. Michelangelo created scenes with so much detail! Click Here to view it.

(note that you cannot turn off the choir music)
