1. Colosseum, one of the biggest attractions in the world
There is no way to take a trip to Rome and not go to the Colosseum or at least take a photo in its surroundings. The ancient Roman arena where gladiators fought is one of the city’s unmissable tourist attractions and represents a lot of the country’s history. The place was built from 72 AD as an arena in which people from different social classes could have fun and be entertained, especially with fights between gladiators and ferocious animals. It is believed that the arena’s audience reached up to 70 thousand spectators!
The construction of the space is impressive, not only for its size and the huge stone blocks, but also for what is known about its construction from the time of the Roman Empire, when there were types of elevators and ramps that provided access between the lower part and top of the arena.
2. Roman Forum and Palatine
An integral part of the entrance to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum corresponds to an area close to the ancient arena, and is the space where the main activities of imperial and republican Roman society took place. There were public and religious buildings, such as temples and squares, speeches, processes and public ceremonies took place.
Today the area is in ruins, but some buildings are very well preserved and can be visited internally. Among the points of interest of the Roman Forum are the Temple of Saturn, Basilica Emilia, Arch of Settimio Severo, and the Via Sacra, the main street of the time.
The Palatine Hill is one of the hills around Rome and close to the Roman Forum, but about 40 meters higher and due to its height, it offers a very cool view of the Roman Forum. It was in the ancient area of the Palatine that the city of Rome was believed to have been founded, around VIII BC. It is another tour that holds remains of ancient buildings and palaces made for high Roman society, in addition to offering a beautiful landscape for the entire archaeological site.
3. Trevi Fountain
Measuring 26 meters high and 20 meters wide, the Trevi Fountain is the largest fountain in the Italian capital and needs to be on your list of unmissable things to do in Rome, whether during the day or at night. The setting for many films, it is an icon of Rome, is part of one of the facades of Palazzo Poli and was designed by Nicola Salvi.
Located in the heart of the capital, it is a tourist spot in Rome that is always full at almost any time of the day — anyone who wants to see it without the competition of faces in their photos can try waking up very early or going almost at dawn to see it. With fewer people around, this becomes easier especially in winter, when the flow of tourists is smaller.
4. Pantheon (Pantheon) and Rotonda Square
In the historic center of the city, the Pantheon is an ancient Roman temple dedicated to all the gods and converted into a church, called the Basilica of Saint Mary and Martyrs in Rome. It’s a tour you shouldn’t miss in Rome, especially because it’s a free tourist attraction!
It is a place of impressive architecture, with a circular shape and enormous ceiling height, which has a singular dome, 43 meters in diameter, which has a central opening where light and occasionally rain enters. Inside the Pantheon are the tombs of important personalities in Italian history, such as. the painter Rafael Sanzio and two Italian kings, Humberto I and Vittorio Emanuelle II, symbol of Italian unification.
As it is a church, the place is free to access and is located in the Rotonda Square (Piazza). As it is a religious temple, pay attention to the rules of dress and behavior during your visit, especially during mass times there. This tip, in fact, applies to all churches you visit in Rome.
The Pantheon celebrates masses on Saturdays at 5pm and on Sundays and holidays at 10:30am.
5. Vatican: St. Peter’s Square and St. Peter’s Basilica
The headquarters of the Catholic Church is located in the smallest sovereign state in the world, the Vatican. And visiting the Vatican when in Rome is a really cool trip, even if Catholicism is not your religion. The space is open to the public and has monumental and iconic buildings, including St. Peter’s Square, a baroque-style square, open to the faithful from all over the world, and St. Peter’s Basilica.
St. Peter’s Basilica
St. Peter’s Basilica, with its 23 thousand square meters, is the most important Catholic building in the world. Its imposing and detailed construction, with enormous columns, was contributed by several artists, including Rafael and Michelangelo. The place is recognized as a UNESCO heritage site and among its points of interest are the tomb of Pope John Paul II and its dome, open to the public and offering a beautiful view — access to the dome can only be done by stairs, for €8 (there are 551 steps) or elevator + stairs (310 steps), for €10. It is also possible to book a tour with a guide, entrance ticket and elevator included.
