10 Sights & Landmarks in Sallustiano That You Shouldn't Miss
Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

The cathedral was down the street from our hotel and was actually not on our list of things to see or tour while in Rome. We love touring old churches and cathedrals in Europe, but in Rome, there is one on nearly every corner (Rome reportedly has over 600 cathedrals) which makes it impossible to see them all. However, one afternoon as we passed the cathedral, we noticed it was very busy and decided to stop in and take a look. We later learned that the basilica has become extremely popular since it appeared in the novel Angels & Demons, written by the American author Dan Brown. Santa Maria della Vittoria (Our Lady of Victory in English), dates from the seventeenth century and was built to commemorate the Catholic armies of Emperor Ferdinand II's victory at the Battle of White Mountain. Although the church’s exterior isn’t very impressive, its interior is extravagantly decorated. No surface is left unembellished: everywhere you look you see colorful pilasters and columns, gilded stucco, marble reliefs, dynamic statues, and vibrant paintings. There is very little natural light inside the church. It is lit with candles which creates a dark but special atmosphere. One of the most notable parts of the church is the Cornaro Chapel that houses the Ecstasy of Saint Teresa, a sculpture by Bernini that is considered to be a sculptural masterpiece of the Baroque period. I would highly recommend visiting, however, the church is relatively small so prepare for tight quarters during tourist season. Touring is free and does not require a reservation. (PaM)

From the outside this church doesn’t seem very impressive. However it is beautiful inside with a quiet and serene small courtyard adjacent to the church. This Armenian church was gifted to the local Armenian community in 1883 by Pope Leo XIII.
