See the most beautiful churches in Italy in Ravenna!

Unlock all the Byzantine churches in Ravenna in one sentence: Ravenna Tour Package! 🌟Must-visit attractions recommended 1. Basilica di San Vitale This church is a sixth-century building, with golden Jesus, green forests, and majestic figures like an emperor. It seems like a three-dimensional projection of the Middle Ages. The most famous are the mosaics of Emperor Justinian the Great and Queen Theodora. Their sacred eyes seem to be looking into your eyes, and a thousand years of time are frozen in an instant. 2. Mausoleo di Galla Placidia Here you will find a "blue starry sky" that is a thousand years older than Van Gogh! Inside the small building, the blue mosaic starry sky and the golden cross on the ceiling complement each other. Walking in, it feels like being in the universe in an instant, and one unconsciously slows down one's steps for fear of disturbing the tranquility and sacredness. 3. Basilica di Sant'Apollinare Nuovo On the long walls on both sides are grand Byzantine mosaics: on one side is the "Procession of Martyrs" and on the other side is the "Procession of Saints". They walk quietly towards Christ, looking particularly solemn against the golden background. This church is like a "time corridor" in Ravenna, recording the artistic evolution from the Gothic period to the Byzantine period. 4. Sant'Apollinare in Classe The most amazing thing is the mosaic in the apse: green grass, twelve sheep and the transfiguration scene of Jesus, the colors are so bright that they don't seem like works of art from thousands of years ago! 5. Archdiocesan Museum (Museo Arcivescovile) This museum is a treasure trove of Ravenna's historical and religious art, especially masterpieces from the Byzantine period. Must-see: Cattedra d'Avorio: This 6th-century ivory bishop's throne is one of the most famous ivory carvings in the world, with exquisite carvings depicting a large number of religious scenes. Cross: The cross decorations collected in the museum combine gold, silver and mosaic craftsmanship, showing the solemnity and sacredness of medieval church art. 💰Travel Tips: Package Guide💰 Package price: about 10-12 euros (specific price depends on the site).
