The church is not as well known as teh cathedral and the sanctuary of Santa Rosa but contains one o the most beautiful and ingeniously painted flat ceilings that looks like a vault besides possessing and incredible painting with tow paintings one on either side of the same canvas which, besides the extensive use of lapis lazuli is still apparently a mystery of how it was managed . But the false perspectives of the ceiling are simply incredible . The church is managed by the Confraternity of St John the Baptist who are restoring it and who only ask for a donation for a explanation and guide around the church's treasures. Certainly a must for any art lover

The design takes full advantage of the sloping site, with a sequence of fountains and channels framed by the hedges set on three terraces among trees. The contrast of architectural formality and the inherently informal- water and trees-express the spirit of Renaissance garden with the sound of the water omnipresent. Below are the twin pavilions that constitute the villa. Villa Lante is a magical place that’s difficult to tear one away

First of all, I would forget about the direct view of the villa and look for some satellite views of the property. The property is awesome. The artwork amazing. It costs 5E. If you go make sure you explore the gardens and walk up into the park and go all the way to the top of the property and check out the other "house". You cannot go inside but the scale of everything will blow you away. End by checking out the grotto at the exit. I would go all the way to the villa looking for a park. More parking exists (at the same price 1E/hour even past the entrance. The official entrance is not that obvious lets just say it is next to a small wooden "vendor" type shed that might not be open. You enter stright from the grand entrance. Amazing, not to be missed.
