Rome is known for historic sites, museums, nightlife, shopping, and classes. Your plan includes some of its best attractions: pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica di San Pietro, explore the ancient world of Colosseum, admire the striking features of Pantheon, and contemplate the long history of Palatine Hill.
