Rome is a country that beno or badly know it all because it is the current capital of Italy and for its historical importance, it is a city rich in history, culture and traditions, to visit absolutely is the Colosseum and 'the first stop for all those who go to Rome, but it would be more correct to call it the Flavian Amphitheater, it is the largest amphitheater that in ancient times was used for spectacles and for the evocation of mythical events.
The Roman forum was a religious, commercial and judicial center. It was Emperor Augustus who transformed the Palatine into the official seat of power, giving way to the construction of those imperial palaces which were later enlarged and restructured by Nero, Domitian and the others that followed. Today it is possible to visit the Piazza del Foro and at other times there is also the possibility of visiting the interior of the Curia.
The Basilica of San Pietro is the most important of the 5 Basilicas the live view of the Michelangelo's dome and the Bernini's colonnade that delimits the square, are experiences that leave an indelible mark. A trace of beauty and majesty that, in hindsight, pervades the entire historic center of the city.
The Trevi Fountain
The most beautiful fountain in the world also famous for the enormous potential of film tourism. What everyone does is throw in a coin. The ritual, clearly a good omen, also has a social purpose: every day, in fact, employees of the municipality collect the coins that are then destined by the body to charitable activities. The fountain was built between 1730 and 1740 by the architect Nicola Salvi, winner of a competition specially organized by Pope Clement XII. A breathtaking work of art, with so many details that it is difficult to catch them all. At the center, beautiful, the statue of Ocean leading a shell-shaped chariot pulled by a pair of horses.
After a series of monuments you can go to the different squares of Rome that are numerous among the most beautiful we have Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, Campo de 'Fiori, Trevi Fountain, Piazza del Popolo, Piazza di Spagna, Piazza Navona and Piazza San Pietro.
