      • Metropolitan City of Rome
        A city that was once the heart of the Roman Empire, and now contains an entire tiny country (and the center of Catholicism) within its borders, Rome doesn’t stop there: a mammoth artistic heritage, two of Europe’s biggest football teams and a penchant for high-class fashion are also just waiting to be uncovered.

        The Vatican is the place to start, where artwork and shapely architecture seems to appear round every corner. You won’t meet the Pope, but you can climb to the platforms of St Peter’s Basilica and explore the dusty archives of the astonishingly vast Vatican Museum. To get there you’ll walk the cobbled streets from the Tiber, passing old Roman houses before arriving amongst the expansive, symmetrical courtyard in which the Pope waves to the masses from a balcony after first being sworn in.

        Try a magnificent climb to the Cupola to see the perfect view of the St. Peter's Square. Roam down the underground Grotto to see the tombs of the Popes and other Roman royalties.

        Grab an ice cream, and head over to the sites the other side of the Tiber, which include the magnificent but crumbling Colosseum, the small but beautiful pools of the Trevi Fountain (take some small change to throw in), and the Roman grandeur of countless uncovered ruins and crumbling yet exquisite churches. Think ‘Angels and Demons’ on a far grander scale.

        It’s not all about history, though: Rome’s streets are coated with designer brands, while the residents shoot around the streets on stylish motorbikes, pausing only for super-strength coffee and to chomp on slices of perfectly made pizza straight from a window on a street corner. Sitting outside in any one of the many plazas and simply absorbing the vibe, cold beer in hand, is enough to feel at the heart of it.

        For the large part Rome is loud and brash, but every bit as charming and invigorating as its reputation would lead you to believe. Try to catch an evening soccer game at the magnificent Stadio Olimpico, or spend your days watching the abundant priests drift down crumbling cobbled streets in their swaying robes amongst nude statues, tiny fountains and perfectly formed buildings. Rome might no longer be the capital of the world, but it is an essential travel experience.

        Viale di Trastevere, 237/B, 00153 Roma, Italy
      • Vatican City
        Both a country within a city and a city within a country, the Catholic heartland of the Vatican lies entirely within the boundaries of ancient Rome, and is guarded by the heavily trained and garishly clad Swiss Guard. It’s also one of the countries least likely to ask you for your passport on entering, the smallest sovereign state in the world, and perhaps the country with the highest density of tourists compared to residents of any on earth.

        The independence of the Vatican is actually relatively new, established in 1929 in an agreement between Mussolini and the Pope which gave the Catholic leadership – at the time a newly landless elite – control of the area around St. Peter’s and the Sistine Chapel, as well as several un-adjoined sites around the city.

        Start by trying to find the point on the Piazza where you can see only one row of columns all around you (there are in fact five), before climbing the steps to St. Peter’s, comfortably the largest basilica in the world, and coated with art and monuments painted by the Italian greats, including Michelangelo. Saunter up the dome, and you can stare down over a mighty city panorama, or dip below the high alter on a tour and explore the relics hidden deep below.

        The Sistine Chapel – the spot where a new Pope is elected that then becomes his private chapel – is home to more masterpieces from Michelangelo and Boticelli, as well as a sensational assortment of 15th century frescoes, while the Vatican Museum is a selection of treasures gifted to the church, and includes exhibits from Greece and Egypt alongside a startling range of significant Roman art. You could easily wile away hours here; the Vatican on the whole is a simply incredible artistic heartland.

        This particular country can be accessed by local bus or subway from the more touristy parts of Rome, and it’s also a massive part of the charm of Italy’s capital. You don’t have to be religious to appreciate the majesty of a destination like this, which resonates with feeling at every turn and stuns with its architecture and art.

        • OMG I wrote such an amazing review of this place but lost it when I added photos. So sad! We had a great tour guide who really made the experience of how Roman life must have been here over 2000 years ago. It's a must see and we loved the whole experience. The views of the surrounding area is fantastic and there are artifacts and ruins all around which are most intriguing.
        • Probably the best attraction in Rome. I won't bore you with all the details, but here is a little trick. Ignore the street sellers trying to offer you tickets, and do no go and queue in the line near the entrance. Head over towards the arch, and near the entrance to the Roman forum you will see a small ticket office. Get your tickets there and the cut straight past everyone waiting at the Colosseum.
        • Of course you should go. There are many choices, with or without guide, but even from outside is a very nice walk. Download all apps you can before, then you will enjoy better the view and the feeling of such an important place. It is important to have a mental image of the ancient status of the building. Check how much time Romans expend to make it.
        • The place speaks for itself! It's an incredible structure. I would recommend paying to go in, it's about €12 for a ticket Inc. the forum, well worth it if you have any interest in ancient Rome, or even if you don't! We went around 9am on Monday morning and didn't have to queue at all.
        • Had the luxury to visit on a wonderfully sunny day. Book your tickets in advance online if you're not keen on a guided tour and don't fall prey to the 'guides' around the area. The security check line tends to be long, but it moves quite fast. Make sure to find your way to the second floor for best views.

        • Great attraction, but too many people!
          I’ve been to Rome three times and have visited the Colosseum twice. The last time being in September last year. It’s one of the world wonders, so there is no doubt it’s Rome’s major tourist attraction. The Colosseum is quite impressive, however the interior disappointed me a little. Especially since there are too many people at the same time. All of them taking selfies, which made the experience terrible. You had to queue all the time just because everyone was wasting time with their camera. My advice, just stick to the surroundings of the Colosseum or take a tour when it’s off-season. If you do, buy tickets in advance online or queue up on the ticketbooth near the entrance to the Roman forum. Get your tickets there and the cut straight past everyone waiting at the Colosseum.
