Sistine Chapel virtual tour

Here is an amazing bit of technology that you would never see in person, and you would NEVER be alone in the room.

It is ALWAYS VERY CROWDED and of course you can't see Michelangelo's artwork close up as you can here.

This is especially spectacular if you have a large high-definition screen!

The Sistine Chapel Virtually

MOVE THE ARROW AND YOU WILL SEE EVERY PART OF THE CHAPEL.

VIEW EVERY PART OF THE MICHAEL ANGELO'S MASTERPIECE JUST CLICK AND DRAG
YOUR ARROW IN THE DIRECTION YOU WISH TO SEE.

In the lower left, click on the plus (+) to move closer, on the minus (-) to move away.

Choir is thrown in free.

Apparently done by Villanova at the request of the Vatican .

Thought you would enjoy the quality and a bit of Rome on your computer.
Amazing what can be done with technology.
