Rome. The Eternal City. Walk its cobblestone streets, and you’ll be marching over layers of history stretching back over 3,000 years. From the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire, medieval Rome to Renaissance Rome, this city has been at the center of the world’s stage for millennia.
This is one of the reasons why I love visiting Rome: it’s an unrivaled historical capital.
But beyond the city’s wellspring of historical treasures, there are also many incredible things to see and do here. Feasting on the city’s delicious cuisine in intimate local restaurants, lounging away the day with an espresso or glass of wine in one of the many charming squares, admiring the Baroque and Renaissance-era architecture side-by-side with ancient Roman ruins. This is a city built for slow travel.
Having been visiting Rome for over a decade, I’ve had plenty of time to explore this sprawling metropolis and see its iconic sights. In this post, I’ll share some of my favorite things to do in Rome so you can have an immersive, authentic experience in Italy’s beloved capital.
