The Basilica di Santa Croce is one of the most visited spots in Florence, Italy, as it's the burial place of many Italian geniuses, such as Michelangelo, Galileo, Machiavelli, Gentile and Rossini. The photo shown is Michelangelo's own tomb, and standing next to it is a somewhat haunting experience. Directly across from Michelangelo rests Galileo Galilei. He was born in Pisa in 1564, and is widely considered one of the most accomplished scientific minds in the history of man.
