Rome, the Eternal City, is one of the most romantic and alluring cities of the world. This city in Italy is not only wonderful to see first hand, it has been around for thousands of years. On April 21st of every year, Rome has a large anniversary celebration. When you have been around for over 2, 700 anniversaries, every added year needs to be greeted with grand style and includes the almost 4 million who live there and those visiting.

The culture and architecture are simply compared to none. The commute to the local attractions can be reached easily by taxi or bus through the city with both offering a flat fee for travel. For those who want to explore more than just the City of Rome, the local railroads span over the countryside. You can choose to walk to many of the sights in Rome since the country itself is tiny. You can spend a day taking in all the attractions that are sprinkled through Rome. The Vatican is one of the sights that must be experienced slowly and with a carefree enjoyment to be able to take it all in.

Rome is also the center of fine dining and cozy sidewalk cafes during the day and at night, the city comes alive with light and places of entertainment to enjoy. Weather is mostly mild for those lazy days drinking coffee at a local Bistro. During July and August, the weather turns hotter and more humid than most of the year. The coolest temperatures felt in Rome are at a low of about 56 degrees. This warm weather is perfect for scouring the local museums and art galleries or for shopping in one of the many fine shops will help you bring home something exquisite to remember your trip for years to come.
