Linen pants, 100% cotton shrug or pashmina and comfortable shoes.

Will need to look into convertible safari pants as I overheat easily so thank you …. good suggestion.

This is a very helpful video. You would be expecting people to respect the sanctity of the area.. I always think of knees and shoulders.i have used a pareo in the past to cover knees or carried a light skirt and long sleeve top.

I've come to understand that many people do not know about the modesty rule. It holds true for any holy site you might visit, probably in many places besides Italy.

Great video! Thank you! Do you have to wear a mask?

Thanks so much! No, they removed all Covid related restrictions in May 2022. You may find some people wearing masks but that is up to each person. It is not required.

@Romewise. I am a big fan of your video. I believe st. Peter basilica is open on Sunday. Can you confirm? Since vatican city is not opened, will it be less people to line up at st. Peter basilica? Thanks

Thank you so much! Visiting the Vatican entails two major sites, 3 if you also count Saint Peter's Square. The two major parts are Saint Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums, which is where the Sistine Chapel is. The Vatican Museums are closed on Sundays except for the last Sunday of the month, when they are open and free. Saint Peter's Basilica is open daily from 7AM to 6:30 pm in winter or 7 pm in summer. There are almost always crowds at both the Vatican Museums and Saint Peter's Basilica, even on Sundays. I have a video about how to avoid the line at Saint Peter's Basilica: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fJp2ztOshZyXgMY.html

This is so helpful, thank you! Silly question, if I have a selfie stick that folds up small and fits inside my little backpack purse, can I still get inside with it put away in my purse? I wouldn’t use it there, but would have it for the rest of my day. Thank you

But I can't guarantee it.

Can the shoulder covering be sheer (semi-opaque) material?

@Romewise

Ай бұрын

This can be subjective and up to the guards but if it's semi-opaque it's probably fine. If it were me, I'd err on the side of caution and not take chances as it would not be fun to be turned away.

Is a long sleeved dress just above the knee but wearing black opague tights acceptable?

@Romewise

5 ай бұрын

Definitely a long-sleeved dress is fine. I am not a Vatican guard, but I often see people wearing shorts and dresses that come to just above the knee. But I can't guarantee it would be ok. I THINK so, but I always err on the side of caution when I visit.

@@2431990kh Yep it's very often the case that people can wear shorts if they are not too short, and nothing will happen. However, sometimes, you might wind up with a very strict guard who will not let you in with bare knees, which is why I say to be on the safe side, go with covered knees. I'm glad you didn't have any issues!

Hi @Romewise, are we allowed to carry bag with size 18 inch x 11 inch x 6.3 inch into the St Peter's basilica? Are we allowed to bring 360 camera, ie. Gopro or Insta 360 camera into St. Peter's basilica?

I am not 100% sure about the size of your backpack but it does not sound too huge to me. You can take cameras and videocameras but not tripods or selfie sticks into the Vatican. You may find this page helpful: www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/organizza-visita/consigli-utili.html

Heaven forbid people police their dress and be respectful versus being policed or not because of understaffing.
