View St Peter's Basilica through the keyhole of the monumental portal at the Magistral Villa, seat of the Sovereign Order of Malta on the Aventine Hill. The dome, framed by a laurel hedge, appears magnified and closer through the keyhole, creating one of Rome's most unusual perspectives; from this single vantage point you can simultaneously see three different states: Vatican City, Rome, and Italy.
