Along the lines of my montreal post, a non-expert’s opinion on things you should do if you’re visiting Rome.
- Go to the vatican. It’s sorta pricey and very busy, but the art + architecture is amazing.
- Throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain. Touristy, cheesy, but adorable.
- Pick up a picnic lunch at GiNa and walk up the Spanish Steps to eat it at the Villa Borghese.
- Get really nerdy about Roman History and see the Forum, the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and the Ara Pacis… (or not… they’re awesome if you love the history, but not at all thrilling if you couldn’t care less about Augustus + company).
- Walk a bit south to Trastavere for a dinner. It’s nice and neighborhoody - a great escape from the tourist traps in the city, and super cheap.
- Eat lots of gelato!!!
