Rome is a bustling, vibrant city; as you might expect being the capital of Italy. In the height of summer temperatures soar to a point where exploring its ancient ruins becomes harder than it needs to be.
The city is like a pop-up history book! The ancient ruins from the Roman period and before are truly amazing. The Colosseum and the roman forum around it transport you back thousands of years. The Pantheon is a former Roman temple, now a church.
