Almost better than being there because you can see all the paintings up close without straining your neck.

TO VIEW EVERY PART OF THE MICHAELANGELO'S MASTERPIECE JUST  
DRAG the ARROW IN THE DIRECTION YOU WISH TO SEE.

In the low left, click on the plus (+) to move closer, on the minus (-)
to move away.  Choir is thrown in for free.  Hold down the left clicker on your mouse
to rotate the picture.

AMAZING. MOVE THE ARROW AND YOU WILL SEE EVERY PART OF THE CHAPEL.
This virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel is incredible. Apparently done by Villanova at the request of the Vatican , but I thought you  would enjoy the quality and a bit of Rome on your computer.

Viva technology!
