Europe tour diffuse note (8)

"All roads lead to Rome", we have gone through so many road, finally arrived in Rome, and the best of Rome on the trip after the final, so that we can have the clearest memories, is also the designer of elaborate itinerary.

Since ancient times, how many legends, myths, proverbs about Rome, it is no exaggeration to say that Rome every inch of the land has a story, it in no time on foreign visitors, is a city full of sensory stimulation.

Over 2500 years of history left by the variety of monuments, sufficient to allow tourists to feast their eyes on. To learn more about this lovely city, you can't yet, but once it fascinated, will look forward to once again and close contact with the city.

From the ancient IDA Candelaria age to the Roman era, the cruel persecution of Christians missionary era, as the golden age of Christian Center, then from the unity of Italy to Mussolini came to power, experienced a variety of historical changes of the Romans developed a unique temperament.

While the assembled from all over Italy to Rome to pursue the dream of all kinds of people are also very interesting. Inclusive of these character is different, is that this block, the eternal city's self-confidence.

Bucket of veterinary field as a symbol of the ancient Roman Empire, of course, is to go.

In the movie "Gladiator" can be seen at the time of prosperity, but now it rendered in our eyes is a huge round of ruins, but you can imagine the Majesty and splendor of that year, facing it, I still feel the exception. A bucket of animal farm, four-layer underneath is closed the slave and the beast, it is the stand, stand on the stand and the bright sun, surrounded by a quiet, but my eyes began to emerge from that farm life and death struggle, stone, on the bustling, hoarse cry, it's shocking.

Girl fountain is another place where we go, here is a group of sculptures, the middle is the sea like, here is the goddess of spring, four, following a wishing pool, the coins left hand from the right shoulder back into the pool, you can make a wish, it is said that here the special vow to pray, so there are always crowded, very popular headcount.

Not far from the girl fountain is Spain square (Piazza Di Spagna), positive steps because Spain was the film "Roman holiday" outdoor scene shot and became very famous.

Referred to as "Italy's design, France's capital, hanging, Italy was United States human occupation" of Spain, is in fact the 1725 was Ambassador of France, name changed from assistance because here are named for the Embassy of Spain. Plaza there are many portraits and selling flower stalls, sit on the steps, the unthinkable is naturally there is a bright, quiet atmosphere. Bench in front of the fountain of the "boat" is always someone in front of the guitar or someone taking pictures, a hilarious scene. "Roman holiday" Audrey Hepburn is sitting on the steps in the eating ice cream when encountering Parker, a friend told us: Italy Rome Roma around writing became Amor, is Latin meaning "love". Come to Rome, is deeply in love with it, but also longing as described in the film, here is a romantic love story. I sat down on the bench, constantly looking around to see my Prince charming is in which direction towards me.

Came to Rome, it is necessary to go to the "country within a country", the world's smallest countries — Vatican.

Its area is only 0.44 square kilometers, in Rome City Center, completely surrounded by Rome, bluntly that is a big square-St. Peter's square and a few buildings around. Vatican population only 700 people, all members of the clergy, no children, these people are from other countries, after Pope naturalisation. But it has its own army, coins, stamps, aircraft (helicopters) and a country should have administrative bodies. St. Peter's square, centralizes the essence of each era, is a design by Bernini and was built in 1667, square around the semi-circular corridor there are 4 columns total 284 root more Lee on movable cylinder, cylinder above is 140 Saints like. Central is a year for 40 years from Egypt shipment on huge cylindrical (25.5 meters high, weighs 320 tons), it is said that Saint Peter here is hanging in the inverted cross. Left and right sides of the fountain, the right is Martha Moderno 17 century built, on the left is Bernini design was later repaired. Standing in the cylinder and the fountain of white marble on the promenade in the cylinder, called mystery is a 4 cylinder looks only a root. Facing St. right hand side of the building is the Pope's study. Pope each Sunday at noon, will appear in the top right of the second window to gather on the square of people waving blessing. St. Peter's Church is the world's largest church, inside the magnificent, there are various statues and mosaics tiles into paintings, among them the famous Michelangelo carved "Saint prosper", wonderful to reproduce good solution from the cross after, lying in the arms of Notre Dame, this is the only one with the works of Michelangelo autograph. We are the afternoon, the Sun is shining, the Church inside light is relatively weak, the Sun from the top of the multicolored glass transmittance down to form a ring, like heaven's light, so that people feel particularly serene, sacred. In Europe visited so many churches, I find that every church is very solemn atmosphere, visitors are consciously put light footsteps, whisper, not like the Chinese temples, overflowing with people, full of curious tourists, like markets, is not due respect for religion.

Although I have a thousand to Rome, but also as attachment can only be cursory because we have only one day of visiting time.

Night Hotel is the Mandarin Hotel, this is the entire stroke of the best hotels, hotel followed by a big garden, there is a beautiful swimming pool, the pool is next to the cafe, there is also a small bar, best of is a musicians playing the organ, playing with romantic classic love songs, mind, I do not know where you are. In the evening I sat there, sipping beer, listening to music, enjoy the quiet and FreehandBy night, this time the European tour of a perfect full stop.
