ITALY Welcome to Rome Facebook Twitter City description Moulded by history and major artistic trends ever since Antiquity, Rome offers up its ancient treasures to visitors in search of wonder. The Eternal City boasts countless works of art, iconic archaeological sites, baroque churches and stunning monuments, set against a backdrop of lush green gardens, irrigated by water from the River Tiber. “Everything is astonishing in Rome”, as Stendhal observed in the early 19th century. And above all, in Rome you'll find an urban atmosphere unlike anything that you will find elsewhere in the world. 28 centuries of heritage still feed into this city of ancient ruins, Italian Renaissance ‘palaces’, fountains, baroque churches and medieval alleys which climb around its 7 hills. Legend has it that everything began on Palatine Hill, the birthplace of this incredible open-air museum. The city's masterpieces, the Roman Forum, the Trevi Fountain, the columns of the Pantheon, and the baroque Piazza Navona, defy the ravages of time and cannot fail to inspire emotion. And the ultimate symbol of the Colosseum, the start and ending point of the Rome Marathon, is a majestic demonstration of the exceptional character of this amazing European capital.
