Rome eternal city
Its historic center is among the 50 Italian sites included by UNESCO in the World Heritage List. The historic centre, enclosed within the Aurelian walls (to the left of the Tiber) and the Gianicolensi walls (to the right of the river), includes 25,000 points of environmental and archaeological interest. The Colosseum, Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna, Via Veneto, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon and countless other squares, the Vatican City, the Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica can be reached with the red line (metro A) of the underground just a few minutes. Legend has it that Rome was founded in 753 BC by two brothers, Romulus and Remus, suckled by the famous She-Wolf, who has now become an iconographic symbol of the Capital, together with one of its most important monuments: the Colosseum. But it is history that made Rome great: first the center of the Roman Republic, then the fulcrum of the political and cultural life of the Empire, and, in the 4th century, the capital of the Christian world.
