Inauguration ceremony of Pope Francis kicked off on Tuesday in front of a big crowd in the Vatican.

Ahead of the inaugural Mass, Pope made his way around St. Peter’s Square and then entered Basilica of Saint Peter. Francis was handed over lamb's wool scarf and a papal ring which is called The Fisherman’s Ring in honor of St. Peter, who was a fisherman.
