About Roma

Roma pakker nesten tre tusen år med historie inn i én by du kan gå rundt i, fra Colosseum og Forum til barokke plasser og Vatikanets kunst.

Det antikke Roma er fortsatt synlig overalt. Colosseum, Forum Romanum og Palatinhøyden ligger sammen i hjertet av byen, Pantheon står ennå med sin åpne oculus, og rester av templer og akvedukter dukker opp mellom leilighetsbygningene. På den andre siden av Tiberen rommer Vatikanstaten Peterskirken, Vatikanmuseene og Michelangelos tak i Det sixtinske kapell.

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