  • Very nice building with a long history. You have to see it during your trip to Rome. There is very nice view from the top of the castle.

  • It is very nice place for nice walk especially if you go there through the street Via Giulia.
    There is the monument of Giordano Bruno in the centre of the place. There are still the stalls there.
    They say it is the best moment to see it in the morning although we did two nice walks around in the evenings and it was very nice and romantic.

  • The place with the Egyptian obelisk, nice fountains and few nice Churches like the Church Santa Maria del Popolo where you can see two great paintings of Carravagio.
    There are also two churches called Santa Maria dei Miracoli and Santa Maria in Monte Santo which close the street Via del Corso.
    The gate on this square was designed by Michael Angelo.

  • They say there is the most beautiful baroque square of Rome and they are right:)
    There is three fountains there like Fontanna dei Qatro Fiumi, Fontanna del Moro (bothe of them were designed by Bernini) and Fontanna di Nettuno.

  • One of the greatest places in Rome, in my opinion. You just have to see it during your trip. You can feel the history around you and close your eyes and listen to your own imagination and you can see the ancient Rome then...

  • The biggest ancient amphitheatre of Rome.The beginning of building was in 72 A.D. There was 80 gates to it and 55 000 of people could be there. There were the fights of the gladiators and wild animals there. The dark side of the history this place is the fact that the first Christians have lost their lifes there...

  • There is the great art gallery in the Villa Borghese. You can see there a lot of great paintings and especially wonderful sculptures of Bernini! You just have to see it!
    My advice, you have to reserve the tickets more earlier than you want to go there , the best by the phone.
    There is also nice park around the art gallery so you can go there for a walk.

  • It is one of the most beautiful fountains of Rome and you absolutely have to see it! If you throw the coin into the water you can be sure you return to "Eternal City". I did it so I am sure I will return there in the future...:)
    It was designed by Nicola salvi in 1762 year.

  • One of the most beautiful churches in Rome , in my opinion of course.
    There is the medieval church with beautiful mosaics inside.
    In the portico there is the relief called "Bocca della Verita" in my free translation the Mouth of the truth. The legend says if the liar put his hand inside of the opened mouth they will close on his hand:) To be honest all people around put their hands inside the mouth. Are there no liars on the world? :)

     I enjoyed visiting your pages on Rome once again, Maria. You brought all those memories back again...it's such a magnificent city!

     Ha! So I'm not the only peron travelling south to escape the lousy Polish weather :) I envy you the sun in your Forum Romanum picture. I went there at dusk on a cold winter day, and guess who I met there? Andrew Lepper in person. Unbelievable!
