There is a lot to see in the Borghese Gallery but the main reason to reserve tickets to visit is to see the unbelievable Bernini sculptures, particularly, Apollo and Daphne, and Poseidon and Persephone. The exquisite skill demonstrated in those works is amazing. The thin leaves growing from Daphne's fingers and the pliant flesh on Persphone's thigh makes it almost impossible to believe these are marble sculptures. And of course, they will never be moved from the site, so the only way to see them is to visit.

    This place is "indescribable"- no words or pictures can do it justice. For the sake of your soul please go, and treat your eyes, as well as your soul to something unforgettable.

    The collections of the Borgsey Museum are important works in the history of art and are one of the museums in Rome. The first floor of the museum is a sculpture exhibition, and the second floor is an art exhibition. The exhibits are extremely impactful.

    The Borgsey Art Museum is exhibiting various crafts made of gold and silver. So the fare is 28 euros, which seems a little higher than usual. It is best to make an appointment online in advance, I temporarily queued up to buy tickets for me to come back in1.5 hours. Except for the women's small handbags, others must be stored. The gallery itself has many Caravaggio works. Plus Raphael, Titian, Leonardo da Vinci and others. Also, Gian Lorenzo Benini's famous sculptures of Apollo and Daphne, the hijacked Prosebina, David, etc. His sculpted lines are smooth and soft, making people look intoxicated. Photographs are not allowed inside, so there is no corresponding photo. But look up online by name.
