What is special about Rome?

There must be a certain unique allure that Rome possesses for it regularly tops the list of the places to visit. Perhaps it is the endless things to see and do that attracts people to this captivating city. If you’re a bit of a history enthusiast, Rome can fully satisfy your craving to learn about the ancient past. You can visit the recently restored abode of the first Emperor of the Roman Empire, Augustus, who dates back to 30BC. And transport yourself back in time with a visit to the Colosseum, an incredible amphitheatre built by Jewish slaves back in 70AD. It is here where hundreds of thousands of races, gladiator fights to the death and the bloody slaughter of animals occurred. The Colosseum is one of Rome’s most popular sights and with its deeply enriching historic past, is it easy to see why.

If your historic appetite is still not satisfied, a trip to Vatican City will surely blow your mind. It is here where you can revel in the splendour of St Peter’s square and appreciate the glorious backdrop of the world-renowned church, the Basilica. In Roman Catholic tradition, the Basilica is heralded as the burial site of St Peter, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, therefore it is regarded as a holy place in Catholicism. It only takes a brief walk around the church to soak in the incredibly peaceful and sacred atmosphere.
