The Basilica of St Mark is the national church of Venice in Rome, as St Mark is the patron saint of Venice. The current building dates to 833, including the Byzantine style apse mosaic. The wooden ceiling, with the emblem of Pope Paul II (1464-1471), is one of only two original 15th-century wooden ceilings in Rome, together with the one at Santa Maria Maggiore. The façade was restyled in 1470, according to the Renaissance taste with a portico and loggia, by Leon Battista Alberti.

The Basilica di San Marco Evangelista al Campidoglio stands in Piazza Venezia, next to Palazzo Venezia to which it is incorporated and is the national church of the Venetians living in Rome. It was founded in 336 by Pope St. Mark and dedicated to the evangelist saint whose name it bore in a place called ad Pallacinas.

A quiet place to come and reflect, far away from the noisy streets. What most impressed me where the paitings hung along the main walls. The ceiling was also very eye-catching.
