This place was awesome. On the outside it looked like some ancient falling down building that had been neglected and abused. But when you walk through the front doors your whole outlook on the place changes in an instant. The entire place is covered in beautiful marble and incredible paintings. These pictures don't even come close to doing its beauty justice. It was pretty dark inside, only lit by the natural light coming through the windows so the exposure on the pictures was terrible. I've edited them to try and bring out some of the colors, but it makes them look a little washed out. If you ever get to Rome, this is a place you must visit.
