One of the Four Major Basilicas in Rome

Basilica of St. John Lateran ✨The Basilica of St. John Lateran is the cathedral of the Diocese of Rome and the oldest of the four major basilicas, often referred to as the "Mother Church" of all Catholic churches in the world. As the oldest and highest-ranking papal basilica in Rome, it holds a special significance in the Catholic faith. ✨Its magnificent interior and exterior are adorned with intricate artworks and stunning sculptures, creating an atmosphere of awe and reverence. It is said to be the residence of the Pope. What a coincidence! When we entered, we unexpectedly ran into a couple of friends from Beijing. Both parties couldn't believe it— the world is vast, yet sometimes it feels incredibly small! 🌍✨ #Rome #Italy #RomanChurch
