Christopher and I spent last month in Rome, the Italian city of our love. It seems like three days is a long time to spend a vacation in a major city like Rome. But they are extremely rare!
We decided to do our planning in order to make the most of our three-day trip to Rome. This has been an incredible trip and I wanted to share it with everyone.
Day 1 – Visit the Roman remains (roman Forum and Colosseum).
We began our three-day Rome tour with a visit at the beautiful Roman remains. We travel back many centuries in time to the period when the Roman Empire was a powerful force in the world. Rome is a city full of diversity !
The impressive Coliseum !
Day 2 – Visit to St Pierre and Vatican chapel
Day 2 was the day I wanted to go to the Vatican City, even if it didn’t seduce Christopher . Before the crowds began to gather, we went to San Pietro’s Basilica.
Michel Angelo’s Pieta is one of the most amazing sights that I have ever seen ! For a stunning panoramic view of the city, I recommend that you visit the tombs of the popes under the Basilica.
Our next stop was the famous Vatican Museums , where the artistic works of its artists amaze everyone. These include Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel Ceiling and The Raphael rooms, as well as the incredible antiquities in Pio Clementino Museum and the Pinacoteca gallery, which includes Caravaggio’s Deposition, and Raphael’s Transfiguration…
We try some Italian food at a nearby restaurant before retiring to our hotel for the night.

Day 3 – Hanging out in Rome Streets
Day three: Before we check out to fly home, our group walked the streets of Rome and enjoyed the many public attractions such as the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon Temple.
Gelato, the famous Italian Ice Cream, is a great way to replenish your energy. Yummy J Before we took a bow, we made sure to try the famous Italian pizza. What else can we do to top an incredible tour of Rome?
We mingled on the streets, then went shopping to purchase souvenirs to keep our Rome’s memories
We didn’t leave the city without exploring its great historical center. Before we leave, we took a restful break in our hotel room. This is a great way to keep the memories of enchanting Rome fresh.
It was a fantastic trip to a beautiful city. You won’t regret it! If you feel the urge to return to this wonderful city again, don’t resist !
If you like sun, sea, and farniente, I can recommend a dream location : Southern Corsica
