Castel Sant Angelo

 This castle was built in AD139 and served as Emperor Hadrian's mausoleum







A model of the castle


Walking up the ramp


Then the stairs


 At the top of the castle



The Vatican City



The Tiber

A corridor links the castle with the Vatican Palace providing an escape route for the pope as shown in the movie "Angels and Demons".
