About Roma

Roma sovrappone quasi tremila anni di storia in una città da girare a piedi, dal Colosseo e dal Foro alle piazze barocche e all'arte del Vaticano.

L'antica Roma è ancora sotto gli occhi di tutti. Il Colosseo, il Foro Romano e il Palatino sorgono insieme nel cuore della città, il Pantheon si innalza con il suo oculo aperto, e frammenti di templi e acquedotti spuntano tra i palazzi. Oltre il Tevere, la Città del Vaticano custodisce la basilica di San Pietro, i Musei Vaticani e il soffitto della Cappella Sistina affrescato da Michelangelo.
