As the saying goes, "All roads lead
to
Rome" and what better way to begin a trip to
Italy by starting off in the capital, Rome!
Head to the most stupendous monument of ancient Rome
— The Coliseum — which once used to seat 50,000
spectators. Built in 72AD, it was the chief circus
of the Roman Empire, the scene of gladiatorial
battles and other cruel glories of the capital.
Next, for a picturesque shot, make a stop at the
Fountain of Trevi. This popular spot attracts more
tourist coins than any other fountains in Rome, due
to the clever belief that if you plan to return to
Rome some day, throw a coin into the fountain.
Fancy getting your portrait done? Go to the Spanish
Steps. Do not forget to soak in the atmosphere at
Rome’s most popular place to hang out whilst sipping
your espresso.
