They say All roads lead to Rome... so, of course, a visit to this eternal city is a MUST.
Whats more... Gladiators' my all time fav movie... hehe
Pity.. the colosseum has deteriorate some... what with all the hackin off of its fine marbles and the neverending restorations.... keepin our fingers crossed that it will go back to its former glory.. minus the inhumane fights between humans and beast, I mean... :*)
Nevertheless, Rome has some of the best structures, buildings, sculptures plus amazing fountains as well.. most famous of all is the Trevi mountain.... and the breathtaking Fontana dei dei Quatto Fiumi (fountains of the 4 rivers) in Piazza Navona |
| Roman forum & Palatine Hill |
|  | the ancient senate..... hehe The Roman Forum.... a commercial, political and religious centre of anciet Rome |
|  | Piazza di Spagna & Spanish Steps Supposed to be a place where beautiful 18th century Italians gathered with the hope of being chosen as artists' models... 18th century, 19th, 20th, 21st.....
Guess human's nature's and actions are all similar irregardless of time... This is what some would call... Timeless acts... hehehe |
