点评:Vatican Chapels are not for everyone - there is so much to see in Venice but if of interest worth the vaporetto ride
Much easier to book than 20 years ago when these were not here. We booked online on the same day.
A quick tour of chapels/areas to sit quietly in shaded gardens. Good to avoid the crowds, though the chapels were designed for individual prayer/reflection so the group will fill them and it is necessary to take turns to see each chapel.
The chapels have been designed by various architects around the world. One has a very narrow doorway - most of our group had to go through sideways. It wouldn’t be an issue for people from that country - the norm is smaller.
Don’t expect it to be a spiritual journey - it’s too quick.
You are given an audio guide and the guide takes you around. Understandable given the languages they’d need to know.
The route is over grassed areas and there are slight ups and downs not always on the made up paths. Not generally a consideration but may be an issue for those with knee issues or who’ve found all the steps and bridges more than expected.
翻译:梵蒂冈教堂并非人人都适合——威尼斯有很多值得参观的地方,但如果感兴趣的话,乘坐水上巴士还是值得的。
现在预订比20年前更容易了,那时还没有这些。我们当天就在网上预订了。
快速游览教堂/区域,在阴凉的花园里静静地坐下。避开人群很方便,不过这些教堂是为个人祈祷/反思而设计的,所以团队会挤满人,所以需要轮流参观每个教堂。
这些教堂是由世界各地的建筑师设计的。其中一个教堂的门很窄——我们团队的大多数人不得不侧身通过。对于来自那个国家的人来说这不是问题——那里的教堂通常更小。
别指望这是一次精神之旅——它太快了。
你会得到一个语音导览,导游会带你参观。考虑到他们需要掌握的语言,所以很容易理解。
这条路线覆盖着草地,有轻微的起伏,并非总是在铺设好的路径上。一般来说,这不算什么问题,但对于膝盖有问题或觉得台阶和桥梁比预期的要多的人来说,可能会有点问题。
