A great place to start your sightseeing tour in Rome. Great views of Rome. Beautiful square designed by Michelangelo Buonarotti. The monument in the middle is the ancient statue of Marc Aurel. If you leave it on the back left side you can see the Romolus and Remus statue and have a great view on the Forum Romanum

Directions: From Piazza Venezia up the stairs to the right of the ugly white monument for Victorio Emanuelle II.

I think a good place to start with the Fori Romani is from the capitol hill. First you see the monument for Vittorio Emmanuelle II and imagine how impressive the ruins in the fori romani where 2000 years ago. You also have a good overall view of the area from the hill. Be sure to take along a good guide book that explains the different buildings. Some books even have good pics with reconstructions what it used to be like.

St. Peter is very impressive, first the large square from which you walk up to the church and then the inside - wow! To me as a lover of Michelangelos works the pieta was the most touching and impressive part. Unfortunately it can only be seen behind a thick layer of bullet proof glas nowadays. Unbelievable that this crazy guy tried to destroy it a few years ago. I also went up to the cupola and the breathtaking view is really worth the effort. You can take the elevator up about halfway, the rest inside the cupola has to be done by foot, it's pretty steep and sometimes very small nothing for people with agoraphobia.
