    Getting TO/AROUND: Rome has two underground lines. Both lines (blue and red line) crosses each other at Termini (see Termini train station). The blue line runs from Rebibbia to Laurentina and includes stops near EUR, St. Paul Ouside the Walls, Piramide, Colosseum and so on. The red line runs from Battistini to Anagnina. It includes stops near the Vatican Museums (Cipro), the Vatican (Ottaviano), Piazza del Popolo (Flaminio) and so on.

    Metro lines run from 5.30 a.m. to 11.30 p.m. (12.30 p.m. on saturdays).

    Tickets are sold at newspapers' stands, tobacco shops and from the vending machines at all stations. There are several kinds of tickets. BIT (biglietto integrato a tempo) is valid for 75 minutes once you've stamped. You can use this for one ride (only) by metro. BIG (biglietto integrato giornaliero) is valid for 24 hours after you've stamped. This is valid for unlimited rides by buses and the metro until midnight of the day it was stamped.

    You have to validate your ticket into a machine before boarding.

     grandissimo tip sulla farmacia. non concordo sul fatto di aver messo Villa D'Este fuori dai beaten paths! per il resto foto bellissime, come sempre
