Italy's capital city, Rome was once the center of the Roman Empire and known as Caput Mundi: The Capital of the World.
The foundations of ancient Rome were laid on Palatine Hill, the city's birthplace. Below, monuments such as the Temple of Saturn and the Arch of Septimius are preserved in the Roman Forum, while the Colosseum remains the city's most enduring symbol.
Masterpieces by Bernini, Giotto, and Raphael can be seen at St. Peter's Basilica, the world's largest church, located in the grand surroundings of Piazza Saint Pietro within the Vatican City.
Once a stadium, Piazza Navona is another of Rome's great squares, now home to a trio of fountains, Baroque architecture and the aroma of Rome's best coffee. The Spanish Steps are another magnet for artists and lovers.
No visit to the 'Eternal City' is complete without making a wish at the nearby Trevi Fountain. Toss a coin into the Trevi, and one day you're sure to return to Rome.
