More of Italia: This was taken from the inside of St. Peter's Basilica. My camera couldn't possibly capture the intricate detail. Everything in here was incredibly detailed, from the floors to the statues, confessionals and tombs. This dome (also called the cupola) was designed by Michelangelo, and served as the model for the U.S. Capitol building.
