About Rome

Rome legt bijna drieduizend jaar geschiedenis in één stad die je te voet beleeft, van Colosseum en Forum tot barokke pleinen en Vaticaanse kunst.

Het oude Rome ligt nog altijd open en bloot. Het Colosseum, het Forum Romanum en de Palatijn staan samen in het hart van de stad, het Pantheon prijkt nog steeds met zijn open oculus en tussen de woonblokken duiken brokstukken van tempels en aquaducten op. Aan de overkant van de Tiber herbergt Vaticaanstad de Sint-Pietersbasiliek, de Vaticaanse Musea en het plafond van Michelangelo's Sixtijnse Kapel.

Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
