If you are visiting Italy for the first time its capital city, Rome, is the place to start your holiday.  Situated in the Lazio region of Italy this European city spoils travellers with its ancient monuments, architecture as well as its climate.  You cannot go wrong starting your travels at the Vatican with  Michaelangelo’s Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica at the heart of the Vatican City.  It is impossible to visit Rome without seeing where this beautiful ancient city began.  The Roman forum and the Pantheon allow travellers a glimpse into the past and a walk around the Colosseum at night is a splendid way to end the day!  If you are looking to return to Rome to explore it even more, throw a coin over your shoulder into the Trevi Fountain and you are sure to visit again!
