Things to do in Rome, Lazio: The Best Historic Sites

May 20, 2022 Deane Carmody

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.

This is one of the picturesque spots in Rome, where perfectly made sculptures, a fountain, and an Egyptian obelisk are all at the front of Pantheon gate and the pillars.

Palazzo di Montecitorio - Sede della Camera dei Deputati

The first Sunday of each month is open for tours to the general public, and schoolchildren are generally welcome in their respective groups. You can also visit the Italian Senate, although coats and ties are required for gentlemen. You might also contact your country's embassy or consulate in Rome to see if a visit can be arranged on a date in which either chamber is in session.
