The rooftop terrace above Castel Sant'Angelo has one of the best views of Rome and the Tiber River as well as St. Peter's Basilica and Vatican City. Also known as the Terrace of the Angel, it's the best place to get a close-up of the statue of Archangel Michael. A visit to the terrace is included in the price of entry to Castel Sant'Angelo National Museum. If you have the option, it is said that the sunset view is one of the best!

Just as we expected, the views from the rooftop terrace atop Castel Sant'Angelo were reason enough to visit the fortress! (But really, exploring the entire national museum was the perfect way to spend an afternoon in Rome.)
The pleasure we derive from journeys is perhaps dependent more on the mindset with which we travel than on the destination we travel to. - Alain de Botto
