Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore

Legend has it that the Virgin Mary appeared before the Pope to instruct him to build the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore. This majestic church is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site with fabulous mosaics and a breathtaking golden ceiling. A must see is the Crypt of the Nativity, said to contain relics from the Holy Crib.
