Highlights of the Doria Pamphilj
This gallery is not busy but it should be. An extraordinary collection, and being able to tour it with Gaia from LivTours made it so much better because she was so knowledgeable about not just the artwork but also the family and the history. This was an amazing tour! Not to be missed in Rome.
