Virtual Tour of Rome's Basilicas
05/13/13 at 04:39:35

I received these from a fellow BMW biker I befriended in Austria.

It was one of those things...

Ride 500 miles on the Friday to a Charity Ride, ride 200 miles on the Saturday Charity Ride, ride another 500 miles back home on the Sunday...
...ride 20 miles to work on Monday... Wink

talk about monkeybutt !!! Grin

Anyway, these are the links he sent, and I have to say I didn't know they existed !

Sistine Chapel http://www.vatican.va/various/cappelle/sistina_vr/index.html

St. Peter's Basilica http://www.vatican.va/various/basiliche/san_pietro/vr_tour/index-en.html

St.Paul's Basilica http://www.vatican.va/various/basiliche/san_paolo/vr_tour/index-it.html

St.John in Lateran http://www.vatican.va/various/basiliche/san_giovanni/vr_tour/Media/VR/Lateran...

It is one of those "16 Gazillion pixel photoshoot", just (slowly) move the mounse and zoom in&out with the +/- buttons.

I'll see if I can find any more... Wink

PS If you have 56k dialup, forget it, these are not pictures but 360°scenarios, they must be HUGE!
Also, to maneuver, keep left mouse button clicked and drag s l o w l y
Last, no, we do not have 24/7 heavenly choirs chanting inside the vatican, it's just sound effects on the website... Wink

Basilica of S. Maria Maggiore http://www.vatican.va/various/basiliche/sm_maggiore/vr_tour/index-it.html

(couldn't transalte this into English, "St.Mary Major" sounds like an Officer's name!)

Coliseum http://www.italiavirtualtour.it/dettaglio.php?id=1231

Rome, in general
http://rome.arounder.com/ (click and choose English, top right hand corner)

Pisa, in general
http://pisa.arounder.com/

Venice, in general
http://venezia.arounder.com/

With "X.arounder.com" just write the name of the city you wish to visit where the "X" is

http://www.arounder.com/

Cool

Big St. Mary ? Grin

Actually, you are right. There were already a gazillion churches named after the Virgin in those days, but not a Basilica.
So they named the Basilica "Sancta Maria Major" to tell that that was the big one.
