Saturday
was last day of our trip to Rome, next day early morning we would have flight
to Warsaw. This day was dedicated
for Centro Storico – Pantheon, Plaza Navona, Campo de’ Fiori and many other
interesting and worth seeing places. We started at Santa Maria del Popolo church. As I mentioned
in this church you can see paintings of famous artists like Pinturicchio, Bramante, Rafael, Caravaggio
and Bernini –
all for free.
The Pantheon is a very recognizable building in Rome. Since the 7th
century, the Pantheon has been used as a Roman Catholic church dedicated to "St. Mary and the Martyrs". In Pantheon there are tombs
of famous Italian like Wiktor
Emanuel II, his son king Umberto or artist Rafael Santi.
Campo de’ Fiori – colorful market in the Rome full of fruits and vegetables.
We checked squeezed pomegranate juice from fresh fruits.
Piazza Venezia –recognizable place in Rome. Beginning and the end of the
tours of Rome.
Trevi Fountain – Rome’s most famous fountain.
It was the end of our stay in Rome. It was very exhausting time, but
definitely very interesting. We discovered Rome - and saw many interesting
places.
I still remember such picture in my memory - the elegant man with a
cigar in his hand passes to the red light at the intersection among of honking
cars and scooters.
For me it is the symbol of this town …
I would like to visit Rome again in the future, but then I will try to
do as princess Anna in “Roman Holiday” said:
“I'd like to sit at a sidewalk cafe and look in shop windows, walk in
the rain.
Have fun, and maybe some excitement …”
