The Colosseum, Roman Forum, Pantheon – these are just some of the many ancient monuments that testify to the power of the city that has been for centuries the centre of the world and the Western civilization. Few cities can boast such rich cultural and art heritage. This is evident at every corner. There are luxurious fountains, magnificent and monumental buildings and galleries and museums at almost every corner of the city. There is no better place than Rome if you want to taste Italian specialties, espresso or "gelato".
