    These charming little silver wing earings were in the Vatican Museum shop where you expect to see mostly religious items.

    Very reasonably priced jewelry.

    Close to the Vatican Museum exit you will find this shop. A good selection of religious items and other artifacts as well. These busts were displayed along with a listing of shipping options and prices with insurance to the US, Europe, Asia and many destinations - very helpful.

  • You can't get one. I asked. Instead, I bought a postage stamp and stuck it into my passport.

    There is many shops where you can find all kinds of souvenirs on Vatican City, Vatican Museum and aroun St Peters. You can negociate the price with the vendor and you will get the best price.

    Hay mogollon de tiendas de souvenirs dispersas en toda la ciudad del vaticano, en los museos vaticano y cerca de la plaza de San Pedro. Si eres avispado puedes regatear y ahorrarte algunos euros.

    Located next to the Information Office (on the left hand side as you face St Peter's Basilica), the Vatican Post Office is a very popular place for both tourists and local Roman's as the Vatican postal system is reputedly fast. Inside, you can buy a large variety of Vatican stamps, coins (although the Euro collections sell out very quickly), postal covers and albums etc.

    Remember: you cannot post mail with Italian stamps in the Vatican post office nor can you post mail with Vatican stamps in the Italian mail system.

    The Vatican Pharmacy: No Johnnies available

    No Johnnies ? Here are the
    consequences
    by sourbugger
    The Vatican Pharmacy is located just inside the Vatican City and open to the public, it is claimed one of the world’s most well stocked, with foreign products as well as Italian ones.

    On the other hand, even if you are armed with the requisite prescription and I.D the products reflect the values of the Catholic Church. You will be looking long and hard if you think you will find contraceptives, Viagra or Medicinal Cannabis !

    Stamps from the Vatican are different from the Italian ones! They might make a nice souvenir!

    Watch out: some of the places make you buy 61c stamps (for a letter), even if you only want to send postcards - 41c)!

    Wherever we went, we saw the sign:

    "NO VATICAN EURO COINS AVAILABLE"

    There are only a very few coins, none of them have ever been used as a real currency - just for collectors and for a real high price!!

    I don't know, if they will reprint those coins or if these signs will be there for good!
