The Colosseo of Rome is magnificent to see. The size is larger in person than the pictures that show off the curves of the stadium. I know that there are a lot of pics and comments on the Colosseo on VT, but first time tourists should know that the best way to get there is the 110 open trambus. It stops right in front of the Colosseo and you can get off, explore the ruins and get back on the 110 later. Twelve stops in all on the 110 gets you to all the major attractions of Rome.

See Rome and die. Wow! See the Piazza di Spagna and the Scalinata di Trinita dei Monti (Spanish Steps) in spring (May) and sigh. The blossoms (Azalea boxed plants) take over the steps from top to bottom. It is a sight to behold. Mother Nature showing off.
A must see for all tourists, from the top of the steps, at the Church of Trinta dei Monti, the view is of Rome. Walk a little at the top to the right and back a couple of blocks and the Via Veneto (La dolce Vita fame) is before you to walk down. Straight in front of you, at the bottom of the steps is the Bernini fountain, Fontana della Barcaccia (Fountain of the Old Boat). Remember not to eat or drink on the steps themselves. It is against the law. Past the fountain of Bernini is one of the most expensive streets in all of Roma. Why? It is the boutique street of Roma. Designer labels fill the area on and around Via Condotti. The entire area is Bella.
