Vatican Museum, Rome, Europe Trip.

Chasing the Vatican guide and being herded by the tour manager we entered Round Room , Octagon Room and the corridors of the museum . With this haste , we finished the Vatican museums really fast . Not too many photos .What were taken are given here .
The photo below is from the location Octagon courtyard or Octagon Hermes hall . Only one photo could be clicked here . It is photo of Venus with her son Cupid.

Venus Felix and son Cupid.

After crossing a corridor with nice statues and beautiful ceiling paintings we reach Round Room .

The photo below is from the round room ( Sala Rotunda). Nero's bath is placed centrally . The flooring is made of very beautiful mosaic designs . Around the walls in niches are giant statues of Gods and Goddesses. In the photo below is the bronze statue of Hercules of the Theatre of Pompaii ,  flanked by two poses of the statues of Goddess Demeter. Poor quality of photos is regretted , but the statues were magnificent !!

Couple of more corridors , a small courtyard where even though good and beautiful ceiling paintings were there , I could not take any photo worth putting up here.
It appeared that we were out of the Museums and following a corridor to the Basilica. I saw a good statue of St Gregory the Illuminator, last photo from museum area.

Then we entered St Peters Basilica.
