About Rom

Rom lægger næsten tre tusind års historie ind i én by, man kan gå rundt i, fra Colosseum og Forum til barokpladser og Vatikanets kunst.

Det antikke Rom er stadig synligt overalt. Colosseum, Forum Romanum og Palatinerhøjen ligger tæt sammen i byens hjerte, Pantheon står endnu med sin åbne oculus, og rester af templer og akvædukter dukker op mellem boligblokkene. På den anden side af Tiberen rummer Vatikanstaten Peterskirken, Vatikanmuseerne og Michelangelos loft i Det Sixtinske Kapel.
