Rome – the city of visible history, where the past of a whole hemisphere seems moving in funeral procession with strange ancestral images and trophies gathered from far-off. Rome is the capital of Italy it has the status of a global city. Its historic centre is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Few cities in the world can compare with Rome and it is so full of things to see and does, one would truly need a lifetime in the Eternal City to explore every corner. Ideally, you visit Rome slowly. You sit, you stroll, you take it slow and as it come. You don’t go to see stuff; you let it slip up on you, one piazza, one fountain, one amazing structure at a time. That would be the best case scenario. There are numerous ancient wonders, the Colosseum, the Forum, the Pantheon is some of the big ones but new ancient ruins are constantly being discovered. One of the ways in which is truly eternal. For art, go the Borghese Gallery. For a touristy must, throw coins in Trevi Fountain. Sit on the Spanish Steps, too. Of course, another must see is the country within the city of Rome, named Vatican City.
