St. Stefano's Basilica, RomeAs far as I know, you won't find ths place anywhere in the guidebooks for Rome... but this is the place to go for religious paintings...
To find it, you need to start from the large shopping street Via Del Corso. Head into the large square that is in the direction of the Borghesi Gardens and just as you approach the large arches that lead onto the road which seperates the two. Turn right and the church should be right in front of you.
This place has it all... including a couple of Caravaggios which i'm really fond of

I love the fact it's built in a round shape, circular buildings have always held a fascination for me for some reason. If I ever go to Rome I'll certainly check it out.
