Reverend Bob Simon, a pastor at St. Catherine of Siena church in Moscow, Pennsylvania (USA); has made an amazing model of the Vatican from Lego blocks. He spent about 10 months constructing a mini St. Peter's Basilica out of a half-million Legos. His architectural feat includes a Lego Pope on a balcony overlooking the crowd in St. Peter's Square. The square is made up of about 44,000 Lego pieces. They resemble cobblestones.
A colorful cast of Lego characters populates the piazza. There is even a nun with a selfie stick. And a bespectacled figurine of Simon. In all, the display measures 14 feet by 6 feet and weighs about 45 kilos. To create the model, Simon used an image from a book cover as a guide. Besides that, he also watched a ton of Youtube videos for reference.
