"Two feet bookcase", your humble himself of it.

Since it is a bookcase, write travels natural to allusive exhaustive, sometimes a bit long-winded, so definitely not always write something like this. Good though big in Europe, although many famous cities, truly worth "bookcase", but only three cities: London wrote early last year, in Paris last year has finished. Rome, the eternal city, will be a "two-foot bookcase" trilogy of the last article.

The first chapter of practical information

Rome's main railway station in the city centre, bus stop in front of the Roman National Museum and the Diocleziano, santa maria della santa maria Church, victtori maggiori Church are also within walking distance.

There are two underground stations subway intersection, where you can buy a Metro ticket. Airport and railway station, between the Green train per hour, the ride is approximately 30 minutes, or on the platform's ticket to buy a ticket, it seems to be 9.5 euros. From the railway station of 20 per hour, 50 minutes of departure, at the station's outer 25 tracks, is dedicated. From the airport every hour 7 minutes and 37 minutes of departure.

At the railway station and the airport has a tourist information Office, can buy Rome roma pass card.

I went to the station tourist centre is being repaired, close up, you can smoke shop and newsstand to buy Roman card. Rome card is a three day bus ticket, various attractions discount fare, plus you have access to the first two spots for free tickets, along with the card comes with a map, a total of 20 euros. The same three-day bus ticket does not include tickets discount is 11 euros, MTR station ticket vending machines, buys. Now that the roma pass only the first two spots for free, of course, for the most expensive tickets in two places: in General is the Amphitheater (bucket animal farm), and Burgess borghese Gallery, the most cost-effective of tickets. Tickets for the big arena, pipe next to the Palace of palatine Hill slopes of the booths, so visit the hill over large arena, go to Parra Pavilion, the door card is not a second spots. Burgess gallery a little problem: it must be booked in advance, and is far away from the city centre, many tourists do not go there, in fact, this is a great pity. Burgess Gallery has many of the masterpieces in the history of art, in Rome, Vatican museums, the best art museum is it. If a second opportunity to inquire is not used for Burgess Gallery, my choice, is down from the slopes of the mountain, through the Pavilion Roman forum relics (where free), to the end of the card Chapiteau Mountain Museum capitol hill, where the ticket is used.

Like London and Paris in all directions of the Metro network, Rome's traffic is not convenient to Metro to place small.

— — No wonder, Rome to Metro, I'm afraid every three step five-step is to meet sleep underground more than two thousand years of monuments. So you must have the "wild" prepared and physical reserves, it is therefore not suitable for summer in Rome to play: day hot walk very hard is one reason that many church wearing short skirts and shorts not allowed is another. All other churches you can be omitted, but the Vatican's St. Peter's Cathedral, you can't go?

I think that Rome would take approximately 3 days, 4 days more abundant, of course, also squeezed in two days, you just have to sacrifice some of the attractions.

I suggest that the route is as follows:

The first day, the Colosseum, Parra booth Hill (not familiar with Roman history friends can skip), ruins of the Roman forum, card Chapiteau Mountain Museum, Emmanuel, monument, Ventura real triumph column, and then from the monument/triumph in front of Venice square pillars along the Victor · Emmanuel-Avenue corso emanuele walk westwards vittio, after the Jesuit Church Street, reach the flower square off for lunch/tea campo di fiori.

From the flower square walk to navara square Benigni fountain of four rivers, then walk to the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain, Albion fountain. If you have time, evening to Spain stage dinner shopping.

The next day, early in the morning to go to the Vatican museums, Sistine Chapel out directly into St. Peter's Cathedral, St. Peter's square by visitors.

Walk from the Plaza to the Tiber River to Fort of angels. Castel of embarrassment: Vatican City Metro, Castel, so you have two options: to skip Angel Castle, take the subway to Spain, to Burgess Gallery; second, if you do not have to go through the flowers yesterday-navora Plaza fountain of four rivers-Pantheon-Trevi Fountain road, today you can walk from Castel River, to flower square, connected to the second half of the range line yesterday.

The third day, South of the city's various attractions: from the railway station you can take the subway to go to san giovanni lateran

O the Church, and then come back and visit the Museum of Rome in front of the station and the Diocleziano, Church of santa maria della victoria, then walk or take the subway, visit the santa maria maggiore Church, St. Peter in chains Cathedral san pietro in vincoli, also reached the big arena, go to the next gold house domus aurea Nero (this is the archaeological site, not familiar with Roman history friends can skip this), then take the subway to large arenas South of Caracalla.

One thing to note: many attractions will rest at noon, almost all of the Church at 12: 30-3: 00 will be closed.

The fountain, Spain stage, monument, Roman forum, do not receive tickets, nature will not be closed at noon. The Church and the booking of tourist attractions, the Vatican, St. Peter's Cathedral, the Colosseum, the Roman Museum, capitol hill Museum no rest at noon. And all at the door of the Church, will open at 7 o'clock in the morning. Journeys, which are to be taken into consideration, don't walk away a lot of road, hit the door.

The main attractions, only Burgess Gallery and Nero gold housing must make an appointment.

Www.ticketeria.it can booking Burgess Gallery, www.pierreci.it can booking Nero gold housing. One of the best Burgess galleries a week or more in advance reservation, where each group of visitors is limited to 360 people, only around 2 hours, the door of the time limit in the 9-point, 11 points, 1 point, 3 points, 5 points. Be sure to get there early, if 15 minutes before entering the hasn't arrived there to buy tickets, will be treated as a waiver, as you reserved tickets will be sold to others.

Many hotels are near the railway station in Rome.

I live on the edge of the railway station of Rome hung sister family hotel. The website is romehostel.spaces live.com/. Poor'd online is the most famous King sister family hotel, I have asked, there was filled to capacity. Compare the new flood sister here, place the side of the train station, very convenient. Hung approximately 50-year-old sister, who is very good, very warm and talkative, here I have a continuous stay of 5 days, often with big sister hung in the local chat, information from many directions.

My identity and age, is not a typical poor tour students, in Europe, had never lived in the family hotel in China, most of this family hotel in the form of a hostel, at my age squeamish, but you can order, my sister in 5 days, and hung is here set individual room.

Living in China opened family hotel, is the majority are people, communication, talking and laughing make friends easier, if you encounter a next travel line, you can ride with.

Italy to famous soft ice cream gelato.

I like sweets, do not eat less, but a special trip to find ice cream shop, only two in Rome. Rome's most famous and most delicious one, giolitti ' s, in the Pantheon is not far to the North, the address is via uffici del vicario No. 40, this is the Bardo, very, very short, in the Pantheon 300 meters to the North, close to plaza West montecitorio. Whether it's rick steves or frommer, fordor, three series of tourist guides are the first listed as Rome, I felt it to be. I remember 3 balls of ice cream, egg rolls, plus a spherical foam of cream, like 4 euros or 4.5 euros, anyway, than those that don't know Shanghai authentic not authentic Italy ice cream shop to much cheaper. The second House is a few big travel guide recommended that somehow in the Chinese forums than there are men, most gioliti China Hotel recommended this, sister and I hung said is this, probably because left the station and close to most of the hotels comparison to find the right, in the subway Republic square, near republica via principe eugenio, 65, named palazzo del freddo giovani, poor'd on called 1880, in fact, it's not a name, but the big door signs with 1880, is opened in that year. Cheaper than gioliti there, 3 ball with foam cream ice cream is 3 euros. Other ice cream, the Trevi Fountain nearby via della panetteria 54, is di san crispino galato. Four rivers fountain is located on the square, navora tre scalini best chocolate ice cream.

Cafe, Hung sister recommended is the place de greco, very hard to find, in Spain before the bench top brand stores in the shopping streets, gathered at the bulgari next door to door, gucci, it founded in 1760.

Day trips outside of Rome the city day of trip, I went to a reference to tivoli, a Naples, Wally and Pompeii.

References to the Wally in Rome, 36 km East to two places: the Villa d ' este Bishop in reference to the city center, and Wally Hadrian Emperor's Villa in 6 km outside the city, just a day's itinerary. Note d ' este Villa Mon closed. From Rome take the Metro b line to the end station pont mamndo station before the bus terminus (note that you cannot use the bus ticket in Rome), sat every 10 minutes on the blue reference Wally bus. From the city centre, the reference to Wally then sit 4 or bus No. 4x Hadrian villas.

From the Rome train station every day there are many train journeys to Naples, from 2 to 3 hours to reach Naples station, not out of the train station, beside sat "circumvesuviana" train Central Vesuvius.

It is not part of the Italy national railRoad, but it is not a Metro, suburban railway, is the platform in the station underground, need to buy tickets. It has several lines that going to Naples Pompeii-suliantuo line to pompei scavi napoli-sorrento, villa dei misteri station, presumably "magic Villa" mean, half an hour by car.

Chapter two classical Rome

Summary: this chapter, with Parra Amphitheater Pavilion, Palace, the Roman forum, Tura's column and the Emperor forum, card Chapiteau Museum, Roman National Museum, Diocleziano, Caracalla, Pantheon, Nero gold House, Augustus mausoleum

London's landmarks are the Parliament building and London Bridge, symbolic of Paris is the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe, Rome, there is no doubt is the Colosseum.

Childhood favorite books is the count of Monte Cristo, now remember the Earl of Rome Colosseum at night, and the robbers chieftain of the mysterious connection scenario. But now want to go into the Colosseum at night is impossible.

Visually, the Colosseum seems full of stone, from bottom to top three layers are used more Creek (no stigma decoration), doric, Ionian (curl stigma) ionic and corinthian Collins (ornate stigma) decoration, the top is a three pillar mixed.

But from the inside, the big arena in fact mainly cement masonry. The Romans invented the cement, because cement ductility and strength, their buildings and body weight can be very, very great. So you see the most typical Roman buildings, not like ancient Greece as Boulder, but red brick exterior with a frame from the chaff, and inner pouring concrete. The shell may use a marble plate or mural decoration. To be fair, the magnificent Roman building very, but very few like Greece so called beautiful. The early Romans may not like today in Italy, they do not pay attention to the design of the gorgeous, just pay attention to the volume and the usability.

Big arena in Rome's history is not quite early, Caesar and Augustus, the great has seen it.

It was completed in the year 80 years, can accommodate up to 5 million viewers, is Weber Xiang Emperor and the Emperor and his son Titus in place, this is the Flavian Dynasty flavian, also known as the Flavian Amphitheater flavium.

Internal Central those, actually that is the floor of the closet and the sidewalk below, the top floor plank into the stadium, the wood and then sprinkle sand to absorb the gladiatorial show people and wild beasts outflow of blood, so that the ground would not slippery.

The so-called "Stadium" arena, the word is from the Latin "sand" variable.

Colosseum two long side of the Center, namely Vista vesta Virgin priest and King's stand.

This is the Emperor stands, when Gladiators party failed dying, victory party immediately asked Emperor: "your Majesty, kill, kill it or not?" said the emperor down, thumb up indicates that the killing of sins.

Large arena side of the triumphal arch of Constantine.

A.d. 312 years British Governor, General Consul of Constantine, the Roman soldiers to be outside the city and another Roman big scramble for the maxentius fired battle, battle diwei Eve, Constantine saw the sky appear burning cross, then converted to Christianity, and sure enough the next day of battle. This "Mir million bridge after the battle of the milvian", Constantine occupation of Rome, and Christianity as State religion. The Arc de Triomphe is to commemorate the victory of the Mir million bridge.

I think that this fact can also tell us that Rome after hundreds of years of evolution, has degenerated to the point: what is 3 times of 100 years ago, only the Julius Caesar's conquest of victory to image, the Roman civil war between absolutely impossible, triumph, built to commemorate the Arc de Triomphe, don't say that mill million bridge, Caesar's victory over Pompey method Salus wars, Augustus defeated Anthony AK Tim sea battle, great decisive battle, neither afterward publicly celebrating in Rome.

(Augustus was subsequently held in triumph-reasons was conquered Egypt, not against Anthony).

From the big arena over the triumphal arch of Constantine, the street of the mountains, the palatine hill slopes of the Pavilion mountains and dense diagrams domitius good Palace.

Figure tightness good Emperor domitius is Flavian Dynasty, the last emperor, died in the year 1996. In his construction of the Palace, Parra booth Hill is the Roman colony of giants like door, when wealthy crassous, conspiracies to Kazan, orator Cicero forest, Empire founding General Agrippa these big man, lived in the mountains. Today's mountain, Paraíba Pavilion map MI Shin Emperor Grand Palace ruins.

This is the Royal Palace on the side of the circuit, the Romans, but also keen enthusiasts gladiatorial racing, the Emperor's suite is on the side of the circuit, with balcony overlooking the arenas.

In the face of large amphitheatre, at the foot of the slopes of the Pavilion, the Canyon is the most concentrated and most magnificent ruins of the Roman forum, here is the nerve centres of ancient Rome: the Senate, citizens Assembly forum rostrum, Temple, Imperial Treasury are all in this area.

Now it only has the ruins of the ruins, ordinary tourists may just be the exclamation about two thousand years ago in the Roman Republic-Empire of powerful and Grand, hurry this relic. You must know these ruins broken column was somewhere, these places what stories we can really see myself, see wonderful nostalgic mood, see.

Roman Republic period, until the time of Caesar Augustus, Rome only triumph-type, no Arc de Triomphe.

The Roman Empire Flavian Dynasty, this is the first Roman triumphal arch, Mark Webber Xiang vespatian, Titus titus and his son two emperors of the conquest of Jerusalem. This "Jewish war" and 70 years after the second Jewish war, making the Jews were expelled from their homes, homeless whole world until 1948 establishment of the State of modern Israel.P > forum import right hand special substantial brick cement structure, there are three large arches, is the basilica of Constantine. Constantine is built next to the big arena triumphal arch Memorial Mir million bridge battle, converted to Christianity and the moving of Constantinople by the Emperor, he is Augustus (Octavian) night 3 years ago. But Brazil profit card basilica in Rome is the Government's public buildings, is commonly used to handle legal matters, namely today's Town Hall or the Court Office, later the "Brazil profit card" architectural style, because large, can accommodate more people go by Christian reference as the basic style of the Church, later the Roman basilica Church is.

Vesta is Rome's kitchen, the Kitchen God priestesses must remain chaste until 40 years of priesthood.

If she lost during this period, to be executed, if able to feast, the priesthood of the country will give a substantial dowry. Vesta's Priestess are born in a noble aristocratic women, there is considerable in the Roman society special status, large arena their private balcony at the Center, across from the balcony of the emperor.

In the Roman city near the 7th century b.c. (than Caesar era also as early as 500 years), there was once a Roman city was attacked by hostile Sabines siege (in Europe saw many "Rob the Sabine women" of painting and sculpture? Sabine is early Rome unbending foe in Italy Peninsula), a Roman called tarpeian vesta Priestess to sell gold to enemy Rome, Sabine broken city after killing the woman and throw down the cliffs.

Since then, this cliff traditionally is the Romans killed the traitor, called belvedere tarpeo.

Then come to see the entire Roman Centre districts of panorama forum

Mamertine prison now only retained a very small, you can continue watching the Dungeon.

Here in Rome but kept the most important national public enemy: "Zhu guda war" in the North Africa King Zhu guda, leading the Gallic people revolt was Caesar defeated nogovitsin cell Toro Rieks, have been kept here, finally was executed. Christ's disciples of St. Peter, the first Roman Bishop, was crucified, was also held here. Perhaps it is because the Saint Peter's sake, here's a pilgrimage is located, was relatively intact.

In the mamertine prison, card Chapiteau Hill square, card Chapiteau Mountain Museum, capitol hill museum, here are some of the world art history heavyweight masterpiece, I Rome pass second free admission is available here.

This is the Museum of Marco? Oliver on Emperor riding like macus aurelius, Museum of genuine original, outside in the square is an infringing copy.

This may be the best in the history of world art heroic ride like. Olivier on the emperor was the heyday of Rome's "the last emperor"-is the movie "Gladiator" in the beginning of the old emperor. He is not only the emperor or stoic philosopher, former school in later times kong song-writing philosophical works "meditations" meditations. His son, is the "Gladiators" inside the young emperor of prototypes, bad Calmar de commodus. But Russell · Crowe played protagonist, Maximus, General, history, but not this one.

In a large arena side not far from Metro, domus aurea has a Department that is being discovered in the ruins of ancient Rome, the legendary tyrant Nero's "Golden House" Palace.

The Golden Roof and the Chinese idiom "a beloved woman" has nothing to do, just describe its magnificent glory, Nero's suicide after his "Golden House" is discarded, so now just ruins. Because this is being discovered finishing process of archaeological sites, open only to a few people, we must advance booking on the Internet, in the specified time the venue with mission commentary, is not a general guide, but a real archaeological staff. If you are interested in the history of Rome, or unimaginative here actually see anything. Only people like me would go there to run.

In addition, the Roman city of ancient Rome monuments, but also North of the city near the Tiber River Augustus mausoleum.

I came all the way to go there, are now being renovated, only from the outside to see some seals the soil remains temporarily have nothing to look.
