“All Roads Lead to Rome.” And so they should! The term stems from the fact that Rome was the epicenter of major roads during the peak of the Roman Empire. Rome was the first Italian city I ever visited, and the Eternal City is what got me hooked on the beautiful country. If you are contemplating traveling to Rome to see the famous Coliseum, Castle of Angels, Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain, you absolutely must plan that trip ASAP! There is a reason why Rome is one of the most visited cities in the world.

Planning on going sightseeing in Rome? Rome is a wonderful destination for families, couples, budget travelers and solo female travel – what are you waiting for? Here are 20 photos to help get you inspired!

Where to stay in Rome

Rome has a plethora of hotel options for every kind of budget – it can be overwhelming when trying to choose a place to stay. Here are a few tried-and-tested hotels in Rome that I would recommend, or head on over here for even more Italy hotel booking tips and recommendations.

Temple View Hotel: wonderful hotel right by Piazza Largo Argentina, large windows open up and offer an amazing view onto the forum where Julius Caesar was supposedly stabbed. Click here to book your stay at Temple View Hotel!

Smooth Hotel Rome Repubblica: This hotel is a relatively new addition to Rome and is in a fantastic location just steps from Rome Termini station. The rooms and facilities are new, the service is excellent and the breakfast spread is decent. The hotel also provides a free smartphone for you to use to help you find your way around Rome. Click here to book your stay at Smooth Hotel Rome Repubblica!

Hotel Royal Santina: Royal Santina is right next to Rome Termini train station as well as the bus depot. The hotel is modern and the rooms are comfortable. If you love high pressure, hot water showers then you’re going to love it here. Click here to book your stay at Hotel Royal Santina!

Casa Wally: Spacious apartments a stone’s throw away from the Pantheon and Piazza Navona. We stayed in a cute little split-level flat and its location made it perfect for exploring Rome. Click here to book your stay at Casa Wally!

    YOU SERIOUSLY CAPTURED ROME BEAUTIFULLY! When I visited two summers ago with my mom and younger sister, I was so taken aback by how old everything was. Things in Spain are old, but seeing the buildings and the coliseum was something else! I loved this! (:

    You just made my wanderlust for Italy even worse. It’s my legit dream to visit one day as I have never been to Europe. All roads were built by the Romans during their empire, right? My dream is to go to the Trevi Fountain and make a wish to come back to Italy.

    Love these picture Flo. There’s no place like Rome. “Rome is the city of echoes, the city of illusions, and the city of yearning.”
    -Giotto di Bondone, Renaissance painter
    I know that we are still yearning to go there 😉

    I love Rome! It’s one of my favorite cities in the world to be honest. I’m a small town girl from the Philippines and I’ve never expected that I will be able to go to a place which I only see in history books not once but twice and probably even more. Your photos are amazing as always. 🙂
