When you think about Rome, what do you think of? Everyone knows the stereotypical sights to see in Rome ; the Coliseum, Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps and I know a lot of guides tell you to give these a miss, to delve ‘beneath the surface’ of tourist Rome, but I’m worried that we travelers are going to miss precisely what makes Rome ; its wonderful design and its attractive monuments, these really are the explanations we go to Rome in the first place and we mustn’t forget this. Read on if you need to rediscover the genuine gems of Rome as I know them, while staying in a Ferienwohnung Rom.
The truth is, Rome really is everything it is cracked up to be and so much more… Called the Eternal city with excellent reason, it’s possible to find food at four in the morning, people are still out enjoying themselves, eating, drinking and socializing in the city’s bars and cafes. It’s just the kind of place that you do not want to leave . Piazza Novona is perfect for finding bars and cafes and there’s an abundance of Rome accommodation too.
What I find great about Rome is you can never ever feel alone, and the selection of Hotel Rom is amazing. There is just far too much going on in the city. Take for example the Trevi fountain. There are always folks swarming around this fountain whatever time of year you decide to visit it. Superb to have a look at, the Trevi fountain is seriously a masterpiece and I’d even say it looks more electrifying at night than it does in the day. For all you romantics out there, the Trevi fountain is great to propose – a lot of folks do it right in front of the fountain in the square! The history behind the Trevi Fountain as far as I know is so ; The fountain at the juncture of three roads ( tre compete ) marks the terminal point of the “modern”Acqua Vergine, the revivified Aqua Virgo, one of the traditional aqueducts that supplied water to traditional Rome. In nineteen BC, apparently with the assistance of a virgin, Roman technicians found a source of pure water some thirteen km ( eight miles ) from the city.
The coliseum is doubtless my favorite place to visit in Rome. Centrally located with a lot of Rome residences and Rome hotels nearby, the Coliseum is one of the most exciting places to visit, I actually felt just about as near to experiencing Roman times as it is possible to get. What surprised me the 1st time I went to the Coliseum when i was about ten was the belief that animals would be wandering around beneath the coliseum in the cages and stables and then was brought up to the main stage to rip some poor man to shreds. The Colosseum was originally capable of seating around fifty thousand spectators, and used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles. It stayed in use for just about five hundred years with the last recorded games being held there as late as the 6th century.
No matter where you go in Rome this summer, ensure you go somewhere that you will not forget. It’s fair enough if you like doing things like visiting a soap factory, or having a trip to the local water park, but believe me, you will not get the exciting feeling that you are experiencing a little bit of Roman history.
