ROME City Information

The Eternal City is the magic place of contrasts, surprises and emotions.

Combining art, culture, history, food & wine excellence, fashion, modern lifestyle, elegant architecture, green parks and villas, Rome offers the largest variety of attractions you may imagine possible in a single place to visit.

If you just walk within the city center and simply admire the narrow streets, the mixture of modern and ancient buildings, the small and big squares, the obelisks, the monumental fountains, the large number of churches, the pine trees, the terraces, the towers, the domes, the open air monuments, the archeological sites, the rests of the ancient city walls… you will feel drunk of absolute beauty.

Rome is crossed by the Tiber River, which at the very city center splits in two parts to accommodate a very small and beautiful Island, visible from above when walking along the banks of the river. The island appears to be shaped like a ship crossing the waters of the river, while ancient and modern bridges accompany the course of the river and draw a unique and inimitable city.

With its concentration of hidden corners to slowly discover, Rome is not only the City famous for the Colosseum and the Vatican Museum.

Known as one of the 7 Wonders of the World, of course the Colosseum is the symbol of Rome and its thousand-year history. It dominates the landscape of the city with its massive architectural structure, immersed in the large open-air archaeological area that holds the oldest evidence of the ancient Romans' glorious past.

In Rome there is the Vatican, the smallest State in the world. A State within a State, a City within a City and the City of Pope. Nothing could be more exciting and unique in the world to explore. It is here that you can visit the Vatican Museums and its endless collection of ancient and modern masterpieces of art, the Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica, one of the most ancient, largest and beautiful Christian basilicas in the world.

In addition to the Colosseum and the Vatican, we suggest you absolutely do not miss Castel Sant'Angelo, Navona Square, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Piazza di Spagna, Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Venezia.

But remember that this is just a small taste of the wonders that the city can offer you, if you have a few more days to dedicate to it.

Last but not least, please enjoy the real Roman pizza and the delicious genuine local ice cream!
