Appuli - A new way to travel and visit!

THE COLOSSEUM, THE BORGHESE, THE ROMAN FORUM, PALATINE HILL, CRYPT OF THE CAPUCHIN FRIARS, 

Rome is the touristic city. There are many places to visit here. So, let's enjoy.


The Colosseum

The Colosseum is one of New 7 Wonders of the World and the largest amphitheater that was ever built. It was constructed almost 2000 years ago, completed in 80 AD. In its heyday, between 50,000 and 80,000 spectators would watch gladiator contests, executions, animal hunts, and the reenactments of famous battles.
 
This is one of Rome's most popular sites to visit, so expect large crowds and long lines. For the best experience, book your tickets in advance. I recommend doing this as soon as you know your travel dates because tickets can sell out.
It takes about one hour to tour the Colosseum. To get the most out of your visit, you can take a tour to areas not included on the regular ticket. Visit the Arena, the Underground (where the animals were kept), and the third tier of the Colosseum. 
 


Roman Forum

The Roman Forum is the historical center of Rome. This is ancient Rome, a complex of government buildings, temples, and marketplaces from 2000 years ago.


Palatine Hill

The Palatine Hill, which relative to the seven hills of Rome is the centremost, is one of the most ancient parts of the city and has been called "the first nucleus of the Roman Empire." The site is now mainly a large open-air museum while the Palatine Museum houses many finds from the excavations here and from other ancient Italian sites.


La Prezzemolina

Just a short walk from the Roman Forum is La Prezzemolina. This highly rated restaurant serves Italian street food and pizza at budget-friendly prices.


Borghese Gallery and Museum

The Borghese contains one of the best collections of art in the world. See works of art by Raphael, Caravaggio, Titian, and Bernini. Even the building is an attraction.
After your visit to the Borghese, it's a nice stroll through the gardens that surround the art museum.


Capuchin Crypt

This is optional but I am including it because it is located within walking distance of the Borghese Art Gallery.
In several small chapels underneath the church of Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappucchini are the skeletal remains of almost 4,000 Capuchin friars. The bones are arranged in artistic patterns. It's morbidly fascinating and definitely an off-the-beaten-path location. 


Trastevere

End the day with dinner in the Trastevere neighborhood. 


A taste of Italy (ROME)

Rome is the capital city of Italy. It is also the capital of the Lazio region, the centre of the Metropolitan City of Rome, and a special comune named Comune di Roma Capitale. Rome is the country's most populated comune and the third most populous city in the European Union by population within city limits.
