The Vatican Museums are going through a glorious change according to Zenit. (And I might add, their revised website is visually beautiful and full of virtual tours.
The Sistine Chapel has been restored, a new entrance has been built, the Raphael rooms in the apartments of Juilus II have been restored, and new works are being displayed regularly and new rooms are being opened.
“And a new initiative, opening the museums after hours to the general public on Fridays nights, signals the Vatican Museums desire to become part of the cultural life of the Romans, instead of just a stomping ground for tourists and pilgrims. What better Friday night date than exploring the history of the Eternal City through its greatest artistic treasures?”
