Seventh stop: ROME
Welcome to the one of the most
popular European cities! Not without reason it’s called The Great Beauty because actually
every, even the smallest, building or a square took part in many historical
events and that’s why now it’s full or memories and mysteries. For sure,
everyone starts visiting Rome from well-known monuments and for this reason I’m not going to talk about The
Colosseum, The Roman Forum, The Trevi Fountain, Vatican City, The Circus
Maximus etc. I prefer sharing with you some of my tips just to help you
to discover the whole beauty of this city.
If you’re skyline lovers, and I hope
you’re :), you
should definitely go up stairs to the The Basilica of St. Mary of the Altar of
Heaven, it’s just between The Capitoline Hill and The Altare della Patria. From
this point you can admire many rooftops of the city, including Castel
Sant’Angelo and St.Peter’s Basilica. By the way, it’s worth to go in the back
of the Capitoline Hill because from this place you can see the breathtaking view of Foro Romano and Colosseo. Then you
need to go to the Villa Borghese Gardens, the huge park in the city centre, and
there you’ll find two lookout points. It’s definitely my favourite place to see
the sunset in the Rome!
What’s more, if you’re hungry, the best idea for the
fast and delicious dinner are always pieces of different kind of pizzas selling
in every corner of the eternal city. Be prepared that it’s almost impossible to
find shopping centres and toilets in the city centre. That’s why if you want to
go shopping, you can go on Via del Corso Street because there are many shops
but to find some mall, you need to go on the edge of the city. And if it goes
about the toilets, the best idea is to use those situated in the bars but
remember that first you always need to buy something there and then you can
enter to the toilet.
In the end, I just would like to
aware you that Rome is full of thieves, that’s why always keep your money and
document in the safe pocket. Additionally, there're not enough trash cans, that's why they're overflowing and as a result, the city is quite cluttered. What’s more, I don’t recommend you visiting the
eternal city in the summer (June, July, August) because there’re a lot of
tourists and every place is crowded, moreover every single day is really hot, so
it’s impossible enjoying your trip because of the terrible heat.
