Yes, Vatican City is a city. The Vatican is a small area set aside in the city of Rome and it the seat of the Catholic church. It is where the Pope resides and does his business for the people of his church. It is mainly made up of St. Peter's Church, the gardens of the pope, the Vatican museum's, the Sistine Chapel, and the offices related to the governance of the church. It has it's own security and guards. There are other parts of the Vatican beyond the small area where it is located such as Castel Gandolfo.

∙ 11y agoNo. The Vatican is located in Rome, Italy and is the smallest city state in world. It is the home of the Pope and the Catholic Church. Located in the Vatican is St. Peter's that was designed by Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel that was painted by him. Buried within St. Peter's is the tomb of Peter and past popes. Also there is 4 museums, and vast amounts of art and antiquities. There is also a library filled with books from through the ages and it has it's own banking system. I have been there three times and still want to go back.
