Rome
Italy's capital, Rome, is a city like no other. In the centre of the vibrant city life is thousands of years of history. And not just in one place, like so many other cities. In Rome you will find monuments and ruins around every corner!
Add to this the fact that the city is home to the world's smallest country, Vatican City, and some of the world's best museums. All this, together with a genuine food culture, makes Rome one of the most interesting places to visit in the world!
Rome is often referred to as the Eternal City. Everywhere you go you will find ruins from the past! Discover the Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre in the world, and imagine what it looked like during the days of gladiatorial combat.
Continue to the neighbouring Roman Forum, the heart of the Roman Empire, where you can get up close to the ruins of thousands of years of government buildings. Also, don't miss the Pantheon, a former Roman temple with holes at the top of the roof.
Wander the charming streets of Trastevere among the shops and outdoor cafes, and feel the buzz of human life.
No visit to Rome is complete without a trip to Vatican City, the world's smallest country. Here you can see St Peter's Basilica, the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Museums with their priceless art.
Rome is the city where the past and present merge in a unique and captivating way.
