Rome, Caput Mundi!

by alemir82 - last update: Feb 11, 2006

You probably can't make a trip to italy without visiting rome. we stayed in a youth hostel minutes from the colosseum, which provided a good base for walking around the city. rome has more of a city feel, especially compared to the quieter life in pisa. just walking around, it seems like some sort of priceless landmark or incredibly gorgeous cathedral is around every corner.

I picked up a small map from a bookstore (2-3 euros), which proved absolutely indispensible for travelling around. it made it much easier to plan out routes for walking and put the size of the city into perspective.


Don't miss in rome:

St. Peter's basilica

 I was never so scared as i was climbing to the top of st .peters, looking down inside the dome it's terrifying when you are afraid of heights!!!

 How did you get the Sistene Chapel shot? You arent supposed to take any photos in there!...

 Interessante, purtroppo non riesco a leggere le scritte in corsivo. Hai trovato l'alloggio a Venezia? Ciao!
