Vatican City - "
officially Vatican City State (Italian: Stato della Città del Vaticano;[note 4] pronounced [ˈstaːto della t͡ʃitˈta (d)del vatiˈkaːno]), a walled enclave within the city of Rome, with an area of approximately 44 hectares (110 acres), and a population of 842,[1] is the smallest internationally recognized independent state in the world by both area and population."
Another place we visited on our Italian holiday.
The Vatican City is huge, seems to go on forever and was so very crowded that I got separated from everyone. After wandering around for a few hours, I finally sat outside waiting for everyone. They were in the restaurant having a bite to eat and drink! This was the days before mobile phones were the norm.
Needless to say I was a wee bit grumpy, but I think it had more to do with the energy of this place, than anything else. At the time I had no idea that I transmuted energies. I only realised this aspect of myself many years later when we sites of World War I in Ypres.
I did enjoy the beautiful paintings, statues and many other masterful crafts on display.
