Rome is a great city, by far one of my favorite cities. The city has just the right amount of wrong, which makes it unique and special. There is a lot to see in Rome and you will not be bored at all. There is somethig for everyone to enjoy no matter what your interests are.

Insider Tip:Under the Castell of Saint Angelo there is a park is really nice to walk down there in the afternoon and enjoy a really roman environment with all the families playing and having a good time. I will recommend the metro system only to get there and get back it is really small (2 lines) so you can start from east to west and the other day from south to north. And the ticket will work also for the bus.
