Rome - the eternal city

As the well-known proverb says - all roads lead to Rome. And it is not only about the mere fact of moving, but also about the constant desire to return to the city that has captivated tourists from all over the world traveling to Italy for decades. Rome, which is the capital of the Lazio region and the country itself, is the most important and the most popular point on its map - full of monuments that are worth seeing at least once in a lifetime. What you must see during your stay in the Eternal City? What places in the region should you visit by the way? Where to stay when traveling to Italy?

Visiting the capital of Lazio

In the Eternal City there are… eternal traffic jams. So the best way to visit Rome is to walk. Fortunately, the greatest attractions are located a short distance from each other. Where to start? Of course, from the Colosseum , which is the symbol of the capital. In the past, it was an arena of gladiator fights with animals. To this day, it is one of the largest ancient buildings, which impresses with its size and majesty. In 2007, it was recognized as one of the seven new wonders of the world. The Trevi Fountain is another must-see when visiting Lazio . As the story goes, whoever throws a small coin into the baroque fountain will return to the city in the future. We recommend watching it in the evening, when it is beautifully lit and the crowds of tourists are smaller than during the day. Another place worth seeing is the Spanish Square , whose characteristic point is the famous staircase - the widest and longest in Europe. Then you can go to the Vatican - the smallest country in the world. Be sure to check out St. Peter , which is the second largest church in the world and the Sistine Chapel , where you will find outstanding frescoes by Michelangelo, including the famous "Creation of Adam". Also go to one of the favorite places - both among Romans and tourists. We are talking about Piazza Navona , the square with the baroque Fountain of the Four Rivers . For art lovers, we recommend a visit to Galleria Spada and Galleria Borghese , which are home to works by artists such as Caravaggio, Rubens and Titian.
