Magnificent square ...very impressive !!!! Go to see the Pope when give the blessing to the crowds-Sundays at 12 noon - busy but it was amazing.Truly a moving and powerful experience!
Visit takes 1-3 hours depending on your patience with examining all artwork. Michelangelo's masterpiece in final hall, in almost pitch dark, hundreds of people - flashlights blitzing away at the ceili
If you’re determined to include the Vatican in your brief Roman holiday, pre-book your slot at the Vatican Museums (http://mv.vatican.va) online to avoid an even longer wait there.
Awesome holy relics here plus a full size copy of the Shroud of Turin.
It has the relic of the Holy Crib, shards from the Holy Manger, a piece of the True Cross, and the tombs of St. Matthew, St. Jerome, and Pope Pius V.
"We were as you are, you'll be as we are" These words are written on a wall in this thrilling skull cemetery, located in the crtypt of the church. Check in if you are brave enough!! :) 자세히 보기
A dusty, dark, humble, but lovely little church with beautiful mosaics in the floor. The Bocca della Verita (Mouth of Truth) is in the entrance way.
Once inside, visitors can make a small donation to the church and a nun will unlock the crypt for you. The nun will take you down a short flight of stairs and leave you alone, surrounded by skeletons.
A long stretch of the ancient Via Appia in Rome, complete with original paving and lined with ruined tombs, catacombs and other sites worth visiting.
John Keats' grave... Non-food stop on the #EatingItaly food tour in Testaccio, Rome.
Little gem of a church. If you are at the Piazza di Trevi, look on the right when facing the fountain and you'll notice it. Make sure you go in, it's worth it.
The first church to be built in Rome with a circular plan (ca. 468–483), it is maybe best known for its 34 rather gruesomely realistic martyrdom frescoes by Niccolò Circignani and Antonio Tempesta.
The oldest and largest of Rome's ancient arenas, the Circus Maximus hosted chariot races from at least the fourth century BC. It was rebuilt by Julius Caesar to hold as many as 300,000 people.
The arch was built by the roman authorities to celebrate Consantine's 'liberation' of Rome. The narrative strip above the side arches, in grand propoganda style, shows him as a man with a mission.
It's estimated that this place has existed for around 2,000 years. Considered as one of the most important Roman Catacombs, this is where you'll see deep tunnel complexes.
Great museum! Especially second floor with unique antique mosaics! Must see!
The Basilica of San Clemente has a lot of secrets, trhee levels, two are underground, the last one hides a river!
This is the home of the Dominicans (Order of Preachers) in Rome. Beautiful, light, basilica.
Great food. Try Carbonara with truffles. Wine even cheap is delicious. Very good service. Five stars :)
Try the glorious sicilian "Arancini" with a glass of Prosecco. And then give up any real dining plan.
A trip to the (near) suburb of Prati is de rigueur for the most adventurous gelato flavors; Fatamorgana takes the prize for most out-there ingredients and combos—chocolate-tobacco; basil-walnut-honey.
Homemade pasta and great seafood. Traditional decoration. One of the best places in rome. Woa
Had their two flavors Lemon+basil & Kiwi+ginger (2€). Both were very good, but you really have to like ginger to appreciate the second, as the taste was very strong!
A coffee temple! They roast their own beans, don't leave without going into the roasting room and seeing (and smelling!) the magic happen.
This hole-in-the-wall pizza joint features some amazing and fresh seasonal concoctions. As seen on Travel Channel’s The Layover with Anthony Bourdain.
Very nice place in a not turistic area. Tons of different biscotti, paid by the kilo. Very jummy! :)
Really authentic and nice restaurant! Good atmosphere and really different then other normal competitors next to them.
Go there, sit at the bar and try every piece of prosciutto or formagio they have. All covered with a glass of prosecco
Perfect little cafe 😍 it's still fairly new. They know how to make you feel special, staff is absolutely the kindest around, it's as if you are in a 5 star hotel even if you have only a coffee.
It is forbidden not to get a "granatina al caffè con panna". It's such great!! Try it!!
