Rome, Italy

​

​

City located in the European Mediterranean. More specifically in the south Europe. Its vast cultural and historic heritage makes it one of the best cities to visit in Europe.

​

Let me just start by saying one visit is not enough. This is how much there is to see and explore. Every single corner will leave you in awe.

​

 

Although I must admit I experience a little of the "Paris Syndrome" when I fist got there. By the second day I feline love with the city and stayed longer.  First thing I wanted to do was visit the Colosseum. I had 2 great reasons for it. First and foremost the knowledge Mrs. Rodriguez taught me when I was in Junior high school and the series "Spartacus" I so wanted to walk on the grounds he walked. I wanted to experience the underground's on my own. Thank God I was more than blessed and my wish came true. Not before I had a scare. The Colosseum was our first tour and as we went in hubby had a sharp pain due to a kidney stone ( see the importance of travel insurance) and we had love quickly.  He passed the stone and were good so we returned to the Colosseum a couple of days after. This time we had the chance to do it all including the undergrounds. If you're thinking of going or you have already booked a trip this tour is a must. I do have to add that there are water fountains and usb charging stations free of charge right in the entrance of the Colosseum. This was the first time I got to see this (the usb charging station) and thought it was very cool.

 

Other places to visit besides just walking the street are; The Spanish Steps, The Trevi Fountain, The Pantheon, Piazza Novena, St. Peter's Basilica,Sistine Chape, Roman Forum, Vatican Museums, Palatine Hill, Arch of Constantine and many more.

​

There is public transportation and is very easy to manage and get by. This is why I would recommend staying by Termini Terminal.

​

In my honest opinion I'll have to differ from popular opinions and say Rome's food wasn't the best but I did get to have some good food. Breakfast was my favorite. Including the bufet and the cozy restaurant just across from Termini terminal.
