The Vatican Museum
With more than five miles of corridors, this vast complex of museums chronicles the history and accomplishments of mankind over the last 2000 years, featuring classic masterpieces such as Rodin's "Thinker" and the Sistine Chapel.
The several museums can take days to cover, and contain rare works of art, ancient manuscripts and sculptures. From the Viale Vaticano, visitors can ride an elevator or climb the double spiral staircase leading to Vatican Hill.
