Rome

ITALY

Rome has more listed buildings, museums and palaces than most cities, and regardless of where you head to, you’ll find yourself spoilt for choice in discovering both famous and lesser known Roman gems. Visits to the Colosseum, the Forum Romanum as well as the Pantheon, should be on the top of any visitor’s list. Off the main tourist track, you’ll find places like the Roman houses under the Church of Saints John and Paul, as well as the Via Appia, boasting numerous beautiful ruins along its path. Similarly,

a visit to Rome should not be without a trip to the Vatican City. Gaze at the truly breathtaking Basilica of St Peter and the Sistine Chapel, with its world-famous painted ceilings. See if you can spot the Pope from the Square of St Peter.

The capital is also about great food and wine, lots of shopping and tranquil parks to catch your breath in when looking to relax away from the city buzz. Around the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain, you’ll find plenty of luxurious shops and delightful cafÊs where you can grab

a cup of Italian coffee, between shopping endeavors. For a green escape, head to the Villa Borghese. A quaint park with lots of trees, ruins and of course the actual Villa Borghese. In the western end of the park you can look out across the city from the Pincian Hill. As the night draws near and the streetlamps light the city in a golden glow, find a restaurant along the narrow streets and tuck into a great local pasta carbonara that will put a flavorful spin on your Roman holiday.
