Eternal City - Rome 2013


Rome ... Rome has been on my target from some time now. In February I bought tickets using Alitalia promotion and chose May as month for visiting Rome (I heard it is the best month to visit Rome, but it turned out that it is not true in this year :) ). 
First impression connected with Rome – style, big squares, narrow streets, good food, traffic jams and sights from films. Especially films are interesting way of perceiving this beautiful town -
“Angels & Demons” , “Roman Holiday”, “To Rome with Love”, “La Dolce Vita” – there are only few which could be inspiration where to go in Rome.

 


     There are many ways how to tour Rome – I used internet (interesting links are below), paper guides (below) and piece of advice from my fellow worker Marta to find out about the interesting places
I describe my way of visiting city and include some of my impression and photos.
