There are very few places like Rome in this world. It is bustling with people, it is noisy and there is traffic everywhere. Yet it manages to find some kind of system in this chaos and it also houses the holiest of holy places for the Roman Catholics. She is bubbling over with conversation and with a multitude of people from all walks of life. Nuns and priests walk nonchalantly pass smart young men ogling all the women all around.
There is so much to see and do in Rome. Just spend a day at the Vatican and you will come back with peace in your hearts and with an appreciation for the beauty of Michelangelo’s and Da Vinci’s creations. Time is standing still here, and there is serenity and quietude here, specially at the Sistine Chapel.
Move away to the centre of the city and step into a world of many centuries ago at the Colosseum. Take an Ancient Rome City Walking Tour, and you will begin to understand why Rome was the centre of civilization many centuries ago. Everywhere you can see signs of the great Roman Empire, of a nation which once seemed to be the centre of the Universe.
Rome is also a food paradise for many people. After all, after the Chinese, the Italian cuisine is the world’s most popular cuisine. Even a roadside cafe will serve you their homemade pasta or pizza, accompanied by a simple wine, and a welcoming smile. Food is eaten leisurely, it is meant to be enjoyed in a relaxed manner and no one seems to be chasing time when they are eating.
Italy is a dazzling country, and Rome is her Queen. She has so much to offer you, ranging from museums to galleries, from ancient monuments to crowded markets, and above all a joyous, welcoming nation.
