Rome was called the ‘Eternal City’ by the Ancient Romans because they believed it would always remain standing.

WHY VISIT ROME?

1. Ancient Ruins and Architecture
The entire city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and it would take a lifetime to fully delve into all its treasures! The iconic Colosseum is the largest amphitheatre in the world while next door is the Roman Forum, the centre of Roman public life.

The Pantheon, a former Roman temple and now a church, has the largest unsupported dome in the world with an oculus in the centre as the only source of light. Explore Circus Maximus, the ancient Roman stadium and the round castle Sant’ Angelo, which is now a museum. Climb the 135 Spanish Steps, the widest staircase in Europe, and throw a coin in the Trevi fountain so you will return to Rome again!
