Situated centrally between Rome and the heart of Etruria, Civitavecchia has been a particularly favoured tourist destination since the 19th century. Sixty kilometres from its port, the gates of Rome, the Eternal City, open to allow tourists admire the splendour of Italy's artistic and historic greatness.
Rome is not only the Coliseum or Vatican City, however. Rome is an open-air museum where works of art, Roman ruins and monuments are on every street and in every corner, available to all.
A visit to Rome is a fascinating journey through the story of humanity, which the tourist can take just strolling through the city centre or through one of the biggest networks of museums in the world.
There are hundreds and hundreds of itineraries to follow in Rome for discovering the city's various aspects, which have become superimposed upon each other over the centuries - from the Rome of the Imperial and Republican eras to the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, to the triumph of Baroque.
Rome is also music, dance, gardens and parks, among which are the Villa Borghese, or the Appia Antica archaelogical complex which can be explored on foot or bicycle, or with the special Archeobus. Rome's thousand warm, soft colours make it a pearl among cities - from the yellow ochre of the Baroque age to the unpolisched white of Travertine marble in innumerable churches and facades, from the blue of its sky to the silver of its fountains.
