★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very beautiful church with a beautiful garden. What most impressed me there is a prayer written in a banner on the wall. One of the most beautiful prayer that I could dedicate to the ones I love. I'm also attaching a picture of the prayer here.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's distasteful and insensitive to equate the aggressor state Muscovy and the victim of aggression Ukraine.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very interesting temple, easy to miss if you are only focus on the most famous monuments promoted by the city. I haven't regreted after the visit. It was a nice experience to see the old mozaices which show the people, animals and more. If you have time you should definitely go there. The entrance is free.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ No mosaics inside, but definitely worth the visit as a good example of paleo-christian art. Built in 424 AD...

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Basilica of San Giovanni Evangelista was built by the Roman princess Galla Placidia in the fifth century AD. The history of church construction is extremely interesting. A marble inscription on the church of San Giovanni Evangelista indicates to us that Galla Placidia (392-450) built this church in memory of the shipwreck survivor, herself and her children. Their Journey took place from Constantinople to Ravenna after the death of her brother Honorio to take over the kingdom of the Western Empire instead of her son Valentinian, who was then too young. Some mosaics are unfortunately lost, but the church is a wonderful example of early Christian architecture. In the Middle Ages, the Benedictines added an important monastery to it. In the 14th century, both the church and the monastery were rebuilt in the Gothic style, because of these interventions, a beautiful portal is visible.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Well-kept church but the Madonna statue with both Ukrainian and Russian flags draped on it was in extremely poor taste. Russia is massacring Ukrainians fffs.
