Church of S. Ignazio

Rome's Church of St. Ignazio is a riot of Baroque illusions. As you walk into the church, admire the dome - it's false. The flat roof has been skillfully painted to look like a dome. When the church was built, a nearby monastery didn't want its light blocked by a huge dome. Brilliant! When i was there it was empty and there was a choir of munks singing. A truly magical experience
