We rode out of the city a ways and went to the Catocombe San Callisto. Thousands of Christians were buried here centuries ago. There are three levels of catacombes. All robbed in antiquity.
We happened upon what we thought was a little church not far from our hotel. Basilica S. Maria degli Angeli hides an amazing inside behind a nondescript outside. There is a huge organ (as the picture shows). We were lucky enough to hear and see a demonstration of it being played.
