  • Actually seeing the Pantheon in person is amazing; you can just feel its history and splendour, especially as it's still so complete. I think the fact that it's located in a small piazza (Piazza della Rotonda) makes it all the more stunning. We sat and had a meal at a restaurant right in front of the Pantheon, which was great!

  • Trevi Fountain was the first site we visited in Rome. We'd had a long train journey from London and it was lovely to go for a walk that evening. Like so many things in Rome, you often reach them by winding alleyways and this was no exception. I wasn't too sure what to expect, but I remember actually catching my breath when we rounded the corner. For a fountain, this is truly breathtaking. It's lovely to sit there in the evening, but it does get very busy.

  • All the top names are situated around the Spanish Steps. You might not be able to afford anything, but it doesn't harm to look now does it!

  • The Colosseum is one of those things you just have to see. There are guided tours which you can join and leave as it suits.
