About a year ago, I was fortunate to get sent to Italy for a 2-week training. I posted a number of posts about my stay there before, but I just think I have a lot more to show…
It’d be injustice for me to not release these images that show how incredibly magnificent Rome really is.
When I posted Back in Rome, I only showed the more common tourist spots. What I’m showing here is there really is much more to Rome to roam about.
I consider Rome as my most favorite city.
Not only this takes me back a year ago, but also about 6 years ago when I lived in Italy for 2 years where I always take the train to visit Rome whenever I got bored and didn’t anything planned. I hope you enjoyed viewing it as well as I did.

The Sophomore Slump 
Great photo-blog. I especially like the bicycles and the statue of Trajan is always one of my favourite spots in Rome.
Can’t blame you. I took my time on that one, admiring and also trying to capture the right spots.
I love Rome. The place has such a rich history and life to it.
Most definitely, vinnieh. Never a tiring city, Rome is. Thanks for the comment and visit.
I love your site. It is most enjoyable.
Wow beautiful pictures! Rome is my favourite too 😉
High Five!:D
thanks for sharing these photos rommel.. i love the first photo, it only proves that it is also a romantic place.
I’m glad the romanticism showed. Thanks for the feedback, elizz.
My favourite city in Europe 🙂 Beautiful history and fantastic local atmosphere! Nice photos, bye. Kamila
Glad to hear. Thanks, Kamila.
I loved each and every one of these images Rommel. The timing on this post is perfect. We will be in Rome in less than a week. 🙂
I’m excited for you, Lu. Go, have fun, have safe travels, and take lots of pictures, will yah! 😀
Yes sir! 🙂
Never been, but it certainly looks grand and its good to away from the main tourist sights!
Yeah, I divert in and out of the main places. I love roaming around aimlessly, most especially in Rome, where it’s guaranteed you see something everywhere you look.
Thank you for the virtual tour, it looks beautiful :o)
Such a wonderful place!
Thanks for the comment and visit, katkarradz.
Oh Rome. I haven’t been there for ages. You were truly lucky! Your photos captured the Eternal city perfectly.
Thanks! And coming back to a place you’ve known is like a refresh of the things you’ve been missing. Such great pleasure and incredible feeling that was. I am grateful for it.
Absolutely amazing Rome in your pictures!
Thank you, Lau. I’m glad you approve.
You have really captured Rome with your photos. It’s packed with ancient relics and architecture….mindblowing!
Despite Rome’s expansiveness and its abundance of beauty and magnificence, in turn, it’s easy to show so much of its mindblowing greatness. 🙂
Hi Rommel, Mindblowing indeed! Rome is one of a kind:)
A truly magical evocation of the glories of a past civilization.
That is why I actually do not mind the rusty looks at all. 😉
History, art and presence stay alive and well in these stunning images!
Thanks for the kind words, Walt.
A really great batch of beautiful photos.
Thank you, MK. I think I was aiming for intended photography when I was there instead of merely just showing the “familiar pictures” of the different tourist spots in Rome.
I will be there in three weeks. After looking at these images, my feet are really itching..
looking quiet as I expect of Rome, it shows quiet and peaceful place.. was it?
Love the perspectives in the photos…it must really pain them to hold their positions, judging by some of their expressions..priceless moments there 🖒😄😄
Two words that comes to mind with Rome is magnificent and majestic and your photos prove it well ! It’s such a grand place with so much to see. No wonder you couldn’t get enough of it!
This is really amazing. And to think it is away from the more tourist spots. There would be so much to see and do there. The statues are so magnificent. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Hi Rommel:
I just came home from a trip to Italy. It was also my second time to Italy. New to me were Amalfi, Capri, Lido, Verona, Lake Como, Pompei, Sorrento, and Assisi. I haven’t yet started to organize my photos, which are of course not as beautiful as yours. About Rome, the Spanish Steps are now not opened for climbing. We only saw it, but it was empty. The Trevi fountain was just newly renovated and we were among the first batch of thousands of tourists there.
I am looking around for Italy travel photos from my fellow bloggers and am happy to see your photos.
Which is my favorite city in Italy? Florence, guess why?

Crazy Gargoyles!
Where was the sculpture of the hag with her elderly boobs? Ive never noticed her anywhere before!
Thanks for sharing the photos, Rommel. The photos are fantastic! Great shots!
Love the contrast of the ancienty and contemporary figures… both of which see oblivious of the others… like seeing two realities at the same time. Now there is a theme to explore.
Oscar
Wonderful city absolutely my favorite
Great city. Some of the best pictures are of the not so usual tourist attractions.

Wow that’s amazing! I will go to rome soon and i think i must visit that cool place 🙂
