"Ancient Rome - The city of the romans" Rome by codrutz

Rome Travel Guide: 11,940 reviews and 26,463 photos

Here it is, my Rome page :) I was waiting for many years to visit Italy, and I choose its most significant city to start exploring the italian way of life and see with my own eyes the ancient history that built this great city.

I've realized when adding Rome page to my VT that it will be difficult to do it. I took more than 1000 pictures during my five days in Rome but I will be glad to do a page with more than 40 tips. Because there are so many other pages about Rome, I tried not to write in the tips the historic data and the facts you can read in the printed travel books, but I tried to tell my experience related to that place.

There are so many nice places in Rome :) No matter if you are planning a trip to Rome or you just want to remind of a past trip, if you browse my tips be so kind and comment so I can see you've been here :)

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Lots to see and to learn history, great city to wonder again and again
  • Cons:Hard to find good accommodation, carefull with the market pizzas sold as made on the spot
  • In a nutshell:One of the most interesting city in this world

    Rome is such a beautiful city! I visited 20 years ago and always wanted to return, but so far I haven't. Maybe I should have thrown a coin in Fontana di Trevi!

    Beautiful page, Codrutz. Love the pics and I the fact that it is not a travel guide (you can get one of those in any shop) but a proper insight into the city from the traveller's point of view. Congrats!
