Latium
The Region is a
mix of hills, flatlands and coastline . The capital of the Region is Rome that is also the capital of Italy. Rome – The Eternal City - with nearly 3000 years
of history. For Rome, as per Venice and Florence, I have no words to describe
it . Rome is the cradle of Roman Civilization.
My Suggestions:
The itinerary
will mostly consist of“ a walking tours” and depends on the time you will have
available. The visit of the important area ( excluding museums) could take two
days (very fast visit), four days with visit to the most important site, and 7
days or more with Museums and Sistine Chapel. The visit will include at
least: the Ancient Rome (Colosseum and Roman Forum etc…)the Historical
Centre ( Unesco World Heritage Site) with Navona square, Trevi
Fountain etc. ; the Christian Area ( St. Peter, Vatican city etc …) Of
course a beautiful place that are off the usual tourist
circuit like : Ostia Antica , the old port of Rome, with its Roman Theatre,
still in use during the summer for Opera and theatre performance. Another interesting
place could be The Catacomb. During the evening Trastevere ,
district of central Rome whose residents claim to be “The Real Romans”. The
area is full of life and of Restaurants/Trattorie/Pizzerie where you can have a
dinner without spending a fortune. Outside Rome there are several very small
interesting old cities like Anagni and Tivoli with Villa Adriana and
Villa d’Este ( both Hunesco World Heritage Site) : Villa d’Este with its
sumptuous gardens has more than 200 fountains . The best time to visit it is during
the evening with all the fountains illuminated ( For Villa Adriana www.pierreci.it - For Villa d’Este www.villadestetivoli.info )
