The Church of Saint John Baptist is a 17th-century Baroque-style church containing priceless works of art, mosaics, and a spectacular dome. Adjacent to the church is the Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II, the city's oldest bridge crossing from the Esquilino Hill to the Gianicolo Hill. Its grand architecture is mirrored in the nearby Castel Sant'Angelo, making it the perfect backdrop for photographs. Both landmarks are equipped with stunning views of the city, especially of the river and the Vatican City. Visitors to Rome will definitely want to experience the history, art, and beauty of these sites.
