  Marvel at Da Vinci's Last Supper What sets da Vinci's famous mural apart is that it's not displayed in a museum among other masterpieces. Instead, it is directly painted onto the wall of the humble Santa Maria delle Grazie church. This creates a unique atmosphere, as the painting is housed in a sacred and private space. Consequently, the experience becomes even more memorable and exclusive, as only a limited number of tourists are granted access each day. This exclusivity is crucial for preserving the delicate art. Another significant advantage is having an expert guide who can highlight the key elements of the masterpiece and share the folklore, myths, secrets, and facts that surround the Last Supper. This guidance is essential since each group is allowed only 15 minutes in front of the painting, and the room can accommodate less than 30 people at a time. With a few helpful pointers, you can ensure that you don't miss any details about one of the world's most famous artworks.
