The Stunning Church of St Andreas in Rome Italy


Sant'Andrea della Valle is one of the three great 17th century preaching built by Counter-Reformation religious orders in the Centro Storico. It is also a titular church, and a minor basilica. The main entrance is on the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II. The first act of Tosca, the opera by Puccini premiered in 1900, is set in this church. A mirror in the nave means the roof and dome can be easily viewed with neck pain
