But I'm not the local mapper who would be familiar enough with the square. But any place dedicated to seeing the pope talk to people surrounded by a hundred religious statues on a giant religious building "hugging" all the people in the square seems to be a giant catholic shrine to the pope or the church as an entity itself, IMO. In capital cities, (proposed) landuse=civic would take up a lot of the land (not through ownership, but dedicated usage), and I imagine that a city-state dedicated to being the HQ of a religion would have a lot of landuse=religious. But again, I'm no expert. Im not even religious.
