Welcome to Rome

About the City

A Virtual Tour of Rome >>

Cradle of the western civilization and the heart of Christianity, Rome is the one city in the world that possesses the most masterpieces.
Under the wonderfully pure sky, the toll of some hundred bells breaks the silence of its majestic and very ancient monuments, its narrow and shady center streets, the small hidden squares, the gushing fountains,
the incredibly green gardens, the silent and enigmatic people and its millions of marble statues.

The extraordinary richness of the artistic, historic, and religious patrimony, the lively markets, the old gastronomic traditions and the "dolce vita", render the Eternal City one of the main destinations of international tourism.
Countless tourists come to Rome each year to admire its treasures of art, architecture and history.

Rome combines a sense of living history with a bustling, lively capital city. It is endlessly fascinating, utterly compelling and a feast for the eye with fountains, churches, palaces and ancient monuments at every turn.
