Excellent View of Roma from the TOP !We had planned to see the Sistine Chapel, but failed to confirm whether it was open or not and it was closed. Anyway, instead we toured the Castel Sant'Angelo. Well worth the time ! Beautiful view of Dowtown Roma buildings from the top. Was charged for children because we were from the USA, but still worth the admission price !OVERALL

Magical at NightWe went to the Castel Sant'Angelo for the view over Rome and night and it was great. The added bonus was that the Castel, which is a museum by day, has events in the evening that turn it into a festival. We hit it during one of these summer festivals and we lucked out. It costs, but it was worth it. There was live music, a restaurant set up and the view from the top at night was magical.2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

This place is so neat.After reading about Castel Sant' Angelo I knew I hada to visit. To think was built as a mausoleum for Hadrian is humbling. It is now owned by the Church and has been a residence of Popes. The walk up the curved hallway is as easy climb. At the top you can see all of Rome spread out before you. It is breath-taking and beautiful. Besides, it is fun to say, "I've been there," when it is on TV.3 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

A must see in RomeOn my first visit to Rome, this wasn't on my list of places to go, but I happened into it on a walk to the Vatican. The history, the grandeur...it's incredible. And you must go to the very top for 360 degree views of the city. I've been to Rome 8 times since the first and it is one of the few consistent items on my itinerary.You did not find this review helpful.9 of 11 Yahoo!

Every time I'll be in Rome, I'll be thereI visited Sant'Angelo Castle for 3 times, the same number of times I've been in Rome. This remarcable Castle stills a mistery for me due to the mix of cultures and times from history that it represents. If you visit Sant'Angelo you will be inside the castle during more than 2 ou 3 hours in a complete time travel across Roman a Catholic history guessing the way that people lived a thought during those periods.You did not find this review helpful.8 of 14 Yahoo!
