Rome
written by golfpunkgirl on May 9th, 2008 (1 vote)

AH, Roma the eternal city! Always one of the most visited cities in Europe. What’s not to like? The gorgeous cobbled streets, the ancient architecture, the history, the Italian culture, the food, wines, gelato! Best thing to do is to throw away your tourist guide, and hop on the metro or buses and discover the city on foot.

In the city center, you are bound to run into fantastic sites like the Colosseum, the roman forum, the Trevi fountain, Pantheon, Spanish steps and countless lovely piazzas where you can sit in a cafe and watch the locals go about their thing while sipping cappuccinos. If you travel just a bit further a field (8mins by metro), you’ll hit the Vatican City which is a whole gorgeous site on its own.

There are so many things to see and do and shoot so make sure you have lots of extra rolls handy and do take your time to enjoy the city in all its glory. Have a slice of pizza and of course try and sample as many different flavors of gelato as possible! Getting to Rome is as easy as hopping on a plane (I recommend Ryanair as the fare is dirt cheap – www.ryanair.com) and stay at least 2-3 days to really soak up the city.
