About Rome
Rome, the capital city of Italy, lives in present but evokes the past like no other city in the world. For more than 2,500 years, emperors, artists, and common citizen have left a mark here. Having said that, it showcases nearly 3,000 years of history in the form of globally influential art, architecture, and culture.
The Ancient ruins of Forum, the Colosseum, St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums are the most prominent attractions of Rome and attract most of the visitors. Nonetheless, the city’s mild Mediterranean climate also plays a vital role in drawing travelers from the cool north. Though the Italian Capital city packs a lot, don’t forget that it is also a wonderful place to practice the Italian-perfected ‘il dolce far niente’ aka the sweet art of ‘Idleness’.

The Spanish Steps
The Spanish Steps are the flight of irregular steps that lead up to the French church of Trinita Dei Monti. Though the stairs lead up to the church, they take their name from the famous Rome plaza situated at its base-Piazza di Spagna. The Spanish steps are quite popular for ‘Barcaccia’-the boat-shaped mountain created by Lorenzo Bernini. Nonetheless, the stairs have been a favorite haunt of tourists, irrespective of the summer or winter season!
The Colosseum & the Arch of Constantine
The Colosseum is to Rome is what Eiffel Tower is to Paris. First started by Vespasian in AD 72 and later enlarged by his son Titus, the Colosseum got inaugurated in the year AD 80. The Flavian Amphitheater was large enough for any sort of festival, be it theatrical performances, circuses, or games. Further, the Colosseum is certainly the largest structure left by the Roman antiquity and it still serves as the model for sports arenas of today!
Roman Forum
In order to explore the core of ancient Rome, one has to walk through the Roman Forum. Though what survives here reflects a very small part of the original splendor, even that’s more than enough. Having said that, the Roman forum had been the center of Roman political and religious life. The major highlights here include the Temple of Antoninus Pius, the Temple of Castor and Pollux, the Temple of Saturn, the Arch of Septimius Severus, the Curia, the Temple of Vesta and the Arch of Titus.
Piazza Navona
Piazza Navona is one of Rome’s most characteristic Baroque squares. Before the Piazza, here stood the Roman stadium built by Emperor Domitian. The stadium served as a host to several festivals and horse races during the Middle Ages but was later revamped in the Baroque style by Borromini. The same architect designed a series of magnificent palaces and the church of Sant’Agnese, on its west side. Nonetheless, the centerpiece of Piazza Navona - the beautiful Baroque fountain was designed by Borromini archrival - Bernini. The fountain figures represent four rivers, namely the Nile, Ganges, Danube, and Rio de la Plata around the large basin.
