I recommend taking a few moments to sit on the steps in front of the Vatican Obelisk. It's such a peaceful spot to just soak in the history and watch people—definitely worth a few minutes!

My advice is to grab a gelato nearby after your visit. There are some great spots along Via della Conciliazione, and it makes for a nice break from all the sightseeing!

I suggest visiting early in the morning around 8 AM. The light is beautiful for photos and it’s way less crowded before the tours start. Plus, it gives you time to explore St. Peter's Square before it gets busy.
