*** Rome***
Rome is the capital of Italy and the country's largest and most populated municipality with over 2.7 million residents. The climate is characteristic of the Mediterranean coasts of Italy. The city also has a significant place in Christianity and is the present day home of the Roman Catholic Church and the site of the Vatican City.
Modern Rome is a bustling cosmopolitan metropolis. One of the strongest symbols of Roman splendor is the Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre ever built in the Roman Empire. Like many Europeans, Romans go out late for fun. The wine bars and cafes around Piazza Navona and Via della Pace and Campo de Fiori stay crowded till late night. Irish pubs are also popular with Italians and expats.
The biggest concentration of nightclubs lies in the Testaccio and Ostiense districts. Music remains a firm favorite here. The majority of Rome's clubs are clustered around Monte Testaccio. The city is an official candidate for the 2020 Olympic Games.
A list of important monuments of ancient Rome includes the Roman Forum, the Domus Aurea, the Pantheon, Trajan's Column, Trajan's Market, the Catacombs, the Circus Maximus, the Baths of Caracalla, Castel Sant' Angelo, the Mausoleum of Augustus, the Ara Pacis, the Arch of Constantine, the Pyramid of Cestius, and the Bocca della Verità.
Notable medieval mosaic and fresco art can be found in the churches of Santa Maria Maggiore, San Paolo Fuori le Mura Santa Maria, Santi Quattro Coronati, and Santa Prassede. Piazza del Campidoglio of Michelangelo and the Palazzo Senatorio are other places worth seeing. The city contains eight ancient Egyptian and five ancient Roman obelisks.
Public parks and nature reserves cover a large area in Rome. The most notable of these are Villa Borghese, Villa Ada, and Villa Doria Pamphili.
Rome is a city famous for its numerous fountains. In these fountains, sculpture became the principal element, and the water was used simply to animate and decorate the sculptures."
