Meet St Peter's Basilica from every part of Rome

It is nice to see St Peter's Basilica from every part of Rome, even it is not located on the highest point inside Rome.  However, it is really standing out from other buildings with its nice pale blue-grey roof.

 

Guirinale, where located the Italian government, is the country's political center. I think the power of governance is related with the height of the land. As the position is higher than other districts nearby, from the Piazza del Quirinale and from the windows of museum Scuderie del Quirinale St Peter's could be seen as well.

Here is the view of the whole Vatican City from the top of the Castel Sant'Angelo. St Peter's Basilica is just standing straight ahead.

The best view of St Peter's is from the bridge "Ponte Umberto I" in front of the Palace of Justice. Standing on the bridge you could find that St Peter's and the bridge Ponte Sant' Angelo are correspondent with each other with the river floating under. This is a popular scene which could often be found in the postcards.

Situated on a little hill, Gianicolo, is a good place to see the Rome. St Peter's could be clearly seen as well from its back yard.

Here is a perfect view from the Giardino degli Aranci, on the hill of Aventino behind the Church of Santa Sabina. Through out the trees of orange, other big pine trees cover the sky, a splendid astonished open-view presents in front of your eyes. It is like a game of "Cache-cache", they always keep the best for the last, like a big surprise.
