Evocative evening view of Castel Sant'Angelo and the Sant'Angelo Bridge crossing the Tiber. The castle, originally built as the mausoleum of Emperor Hadrian in 135 AD, was transformed into a papal fortress in the Middle Ages. The bridge, adorned with Bernini's angel statues, leads towards Vatican City. The evening lights create a magical atmosphere.
