About Rome

Rome superpose près de trois mille ans d'histoire dans une ville à parcourir à pied, du Colisée au Forum, des places baroques à l'art du Vatican.

La Rome antique est encore bien visible. Le Colisée, le Forum romain et le Palatin se côtoient au cœur de la ville, le Panthéon dresse toujours son oculus ouvert, et des fragments de temples et d'aqueducs surgissent entre les immeubles d'habitation. De l'autre côté du Tibre, la Cité du Vatican abrite la basilique Saint-Pierre, les Musées du Vatican et le plafond de la chapelle Sixtine peint par Michel-Ange.
