Roma - Città Etterna

Rome - The center of the ancient world

Coloseum at night

While the Colosseum stands, Rome shall stand,
but when the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall
- and when Rome falls, the world will end.
Venerando Beda (VII-VIII century)

So much has to be seen and done in Rome! But most places on Rome depend on your imagination and your knowledge of History and Art, so get ready before going to Rome reading about the main facts of the people who ruled the Mediterranean during many centuries.
