Rome, located on seven hills for over 2000 years, is the administrative and cultural capital of Italy.

An extraordinary number of monuments of ancient culture are concentrated here, so a sightseeing tour to Rome in its many variants is so popular.
The architectural monuments of Rome are distinguished by special splendor and grandeur, striking the imagination. What is the Colosseum alone, which was built manually, without the use of modern technology.

Its center is also in Rome, and a tour to Rome may have as its main point a visit to the Vatican.
