St. John Lateran in Rome

Before St. Peters of the 13th Century, the home church of the Pope was St. John Lateran in Rome. You can tour this magnificent church on your computer. You can spend as much or as little time as you want on it, keep it permanently if you wish, and explore it at leisure. Don't forget to turn up the volume and remember the close-up tool is your friend (lower left corner).  Also use your cursor to click and drag, and you can move to the ceiling or 360 degrees or take any perspective you wish to take. You can zero in on the smallest feature of a painting.
    
Whether you have visited it or not, you have never seen it this well.  This is amazing.

Enjoy!
