Thousand sophisticated words can fall right in front of me but Rome is simply …
… beautiful.
As much as I would want to divert from siding along with the majority, there truly are absolute reasons behind the wide popularity of Rome. There are so many places to visit and things to do in Italy but I can’t help but honestly consider Rome as the best place in Italy. It’s just that there are plenty of things to explore, the countless sites, the interesting histories, the tasty food, etc. And whatever itinerary you planned, or didn’t planned, guarantees you adventure looking for directions, getting through the alleys or just basic sightseeing to Roman structures. The sites are conveniently just casual walk away from each other. One shant get tired while walking nor bored while riding the train because along the way, the buildings and the establishments already are an attraction in itself.
Great entry I love the place 🙂
Your photographs are amazing. I would think, when visiting Rome you would have to add an extra week or two just to take in all of the sights and absorb the history. It is hard to believe how long some of the ancient buildings have stood the test of time. I’ll bet they would have stories to tell, if they could talk.
Na-ah, it takes a day to visit most of Rome. You can even add the crowded St. Peter Basilica, and still have plenty of time. They’re just close to each other. That’s the great part.
Beautiful place! Excellent photography!
Thank You Nelson for all the comments. Truly appreciated it. Esp. with the that word photography. Something I wouldn’t expect.
ASTOUNDING too … The ruins of the early civilization is something worthy of recognition. I will never forget what I learned about ruins in the movie EAT, PRAY, LOVE: Ruins are the roads to transformation.
Haven’t seen that movie. Set in Italy? Now, I’m intrigued.
I particularly like the light streaming through the window openings, and the retangles of light on the ground.

Exactly why the Colloseum is very popular. It’s easy to get good capture and a lot of room for creativity for real photographers.
Pleasure to have you here Anne.
You capture the water pictures very well. I feel like I’m there. Ah … I wish I were. Your photos are an inspiration TO JUST GO!
Yeah, I was so surprised to have captured the waters in still images.
Thanks for taking a keen interest to my blog Dennis.
Must be a very memorable experience for you. Definitely a great place to visit to. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Agree man Roma is the best city in the world. Need to go back with my DSLR next time. Was hoping for this spring but don’t think its in the cards unfortunately.
I took these pictures with a point and shoot. 😀 i ran out of cards completely. 😦 Oh well, I had visttied it well enough to remember so much about it.
