Colosseum - it will take your breath away. What a monument!
You can even walk along the interior walls of the colosseum.
The Forum, where you can see the remains of old monuments.
Another shot of the Forum.
St. Peter's Basilica, an unbelievably large cathedral. You can walk up to the top, but it will be a long journey with over 300 steps.
Interesting artefacts kept in one of Rome's many national museums.
Trevi Fountain -- a beautiful sight both day and night. Nearby, you can take a break in one of the many cafes that surround it.
I thought it was unbelievable to read that you can actually drink from water fountains here -- It tasted fine too!
Here is a postcard of St. Peter's basilica -- just such a beautiful view.
Rome's extremely narrow street can be clausterphobic for some. It also explains the huge popularity in Rome for scooters.
Here is a shot of the large Pantheon, another impressive Roman building.
I liked this statue -- He seems very pensive...
This picture was taken inside the courtyard of one of the national museums.
Statues abound, everywhere we go.
And, murals too. Renaissance style, of course.
These tiny little cars are really scooters with a functional shell on them.
Not convinced yet that scooters are the way to go in Italy? You may want to talk to one of the owners of these then.
Little scooter esso stations. How cute!
The Capuccin Monks Ossuary -- the entire 5-6 room hall is decorated in the bones of historic monks. A ghastly tour.
Another room decorated with bones -- even the bones of a baby, as you can see on the ceiling.
I love Europe for the facts that massive and impressive buildings are unveiled as you make your way down the maze-like cobblestone streets.
This one is the Duomo, Florence's main cathedral.
