🏛️ Rome: A Living Museum
“Rome is not like any other city. It’s a big museum, a living room that shall be crossed on one’s toes.” – Alberto Sordi
Founded by Romulus and Remus, raised on mythology, and crowned by centuries of civilization, Rome is an intoxicating fusion of the classical and the contemporary. With seven legendary hills, over 900 churches, and millennia of empire, revolution, and reinvention, Rome is the very essence of the past alive in the present.
From tossing a coin in Fontana di Trevi, to gazing skyward beneath the Pantheon dome, to strolling down Via Appia Antica—Rome is meant to be wandered. And with this map, you’ll never wander lost.
