What comes to mind when you think of the top Rome attractions? Ancient empires and Renaissance art? Sticky sweet gelato and carbs galore? Cobblestone streets packed to the brim with tourists? Rome definitely has all of these things. But it also has so much more.
Though Rome is probably one of the most famous and touristy cities on the planet, it has a unique charm that guidebooks don’t always advertise. You will probably have to push through some crowds to get a good photo of the Trevi Fountain or the Colosseum.
