Rome An Open Air Museum

Rome is the most fascinating city in Italy, which arguably makes it the most fantastic city in the world. An ancient place, packed with the relics of well over two thousand years of inhabitation, you could spend a month here and still only scratch the surface. Yet it is so much more than an open-air museum: it's culture, it's food and it's people make up a modern, vibrant city that would be worthy of a visit irrespective of it's history. As a historic place, it's special enough, but as a contemporary european capital, it is unique.
