Rome
is an amazing and breathtaking city with years of history behind it. It is a vibrant and busy City with new and old world charm. The City of
Rome
itself is a culture on its own. When walking around this city you can see evidence of the great
Roman Empire
and ancient splendor like the Coliseum and of course the
Vatican City
and
St Peters
. Most of the major historical sights are within walking distance from the central train station. Rome has a population of about 2.7 million people.
Rome
is a very big city and you can get lost very easily. It is a good idea to have a number of maps with you as you are sight seeing. Or the best that you could do would be to take the public bus system, because it has lines clear across the city. You can get anywhere you want to go using the bus line. They have stops at all the major attractions, if not right in front then close by. Thats how most tourists see
Rome
because all the time you spend getting lost actually is time you could be seeing the sights. Please consider using the bus service to make your trip more enjoyable.
The historic theatres, those being the
Argentina
, the Valle and the Quirino are very nice. They have classical plays by famous actors and theatre companies. There are many other private theatres often host young artists and offer stimulating and quality works. The Teatro dell'Orologio is a smaller theatre where the author is gets more attention than the actual drama and the Teatro della Cometa and the Teatro Flaiano offer vibrant exciting shows that most tourists like to see.
Of course, if you have time to see more, please do. We suggest that you take a day to see the Basilica of San Pietro where people go to receive the Popes blessing. Millions of people come to see the Pope on Sundays and you should make every effort to go to. You must try to include in your sightseeing the Pantheon. It is the most spiritual structure in
Rome
. The only light source that comes into the building is through the dome at the top of the structure. Another attraction that should be on your list should be the Trastevere and the Trevi Fountain. The Trevi Fountain is so beautiful and offers a very scenic look. The time you spend in
Rome
will be filled with numerous cultural experiences. There are museums for everything from art, sculptures, music, history, literature and much more. There are theatres for the opera, symphony, musical shows, comedies and dances. There are many different institutions for higher education and various public libraries in the area.
Rome
remains cultural and tourist centre.
