This is normally a very busy road in Bogotá, Colombia, but only one single lane for all the traffic. Left lane for bicycles, right for buses. Please check my portfolio: https://www.istockphoto.com/portfolio/ChandraDhas?mediatype=photography

The first time I entered St. Peter's was probably in the mid-1980s. I was completely overwhelmed by the enormity of the Basilica. It is the Largest church on earth. I would highly recommend a visit. https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/vatican-city-papal-basilica-of-saint-peter-in-rome-gm2150764123-571913829
