Rome | Roman Forum

Hi !!!
On the third day of my trip to Rome I went to the Colosseum and had a walk round. I then walked up Palatine Hill and walked to the Roman Forum, which I loved as I liked the mix of different buildings together and the contrast of the old Roman buildings with the new modern ones. Afterwards I walked up Capitoline Hill to Piazza del Campidoglio, then I walked past the Vittorio Emanuele Monument to Trojan's Column. Later we walked to the Pantheon and walked around the shops there.

Rome | Vatican City

Hi !!!
On the second day of my trip to Rome I went to the Museo Nazionale Palazzo in the morning. Then afterwards I went to Vatican City by metro. While I was there I had a tour of the Vatican galleries, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica, which were beautiful. I wanted to go up the dome, but unfortunately it was closed. Afterwards, I walked along the river, past the Castel St Angelo to the Piazze Navona where I had a delicious pizza.
