As the previous reviewer states, don't judge it from the outside. Inside it is the most beautiful church I have ever seen. White, Green, Grey and Yellow marble all over. Beautiful statues including John the Baptist and the Apostle Paul. Statue in the Foyer phenomenal, wish my picture could do it justice. I would highly recommend you go see this... more

Don't miss this church very close to Royal Palace. Neither the facade nor the dome seen from the outside can give you an idea of its beautiful interior. I think it is one of the best baroque churchs in Europe, and recently has been restored. more
