Top places to visit

1. Colosseum

Originally completed eighty years after the birth of Christ, the Colosseum was the largest of the amphitheatres constructed by the Roman Empire, at one time regularly hosting 50,000 spectators for the sort of brutal entertainment that was depicted in the film “Gladiator”.

2. Roman Forum

Though the Roman Empire covered over 6.5 million square kilometres at its peak, the Roman Forum was at its very heart. Today, it’s a crumbling but preserved monument to the power once wielded by the likes of Caesar, and the immense military power he commanded.

Ancient ruins with columns and a large dome structure.

3. Via Veneto

Discover Via Veneto, Rome’s elegant street filled with cafés and luxury hotels. The great Italian filmmaker Federico Fellini made this sophisticated street famous in the 1960s. See the Piazza Barberini, a square featuring a 17th-century fountain. Tour a 17th-century church and see a crypt housing the bones of many monks. Follow Via Veneto north to a gate of the Aurelian Walls. This street is located near one of Rome’s largest public parks, filled with historic attractions. Spend a day outside in this delightful spot.

7. Piazza Venezia

As soon as you step into the Piazza Venezia, you will be struck by its breath-taking beauty. The first thing that’ll catch your eye is the Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II (locally referred to as Altare della Patria), a staggering white marble creation that has lost none of its beauty in the decades since its construction in 1935. The building was originally designed to mark the unification of Italy, but wasn’t completed until some fifty years after it was designed by Giuseppe Sacconi.
