Whether you're shopping in the Via Condotti, getting that Gladiator feeling in the Colosseum or munching on a perfect Roman pizza, you'll find Italy's ancient capital is never short of fresh ideas.

Passing through? Experience ancient Rome at the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, then explore the Catacombs, the underground cemeteries where the city's early Christians buried their dead.
-
Staying a while? Take a break from sightseeing when you head for the greenery of the Villa Borghese park. There, you can get a great view of the city from the world's largest fixed hot air balloon.

The inside track... Fancy an authentic, thin, crispy Roman pizza? Head for the tiny but tasty Il Leoncino at Piazza di Spanga.
