Riassunto

Written by one of Italy’s most distinguished journalists, this book is for those who have not yet visited Rome and for those whose efforts to understand the city have been frustrated by its complexity. Rich in accessible information, it is bound to make your visit to Rome more meaningful. The book is arranged into realistically timed, carefully organized themed itineraries, which can be customized according to your own particular needs and length of stay. At the same time, this is one of the most comprehensive guides to Rome available, making it ideal for any traveler looking for their own route around the city. Full indices, including a biographical dictionary of artists, make the information easy to access, and hundreds of maps and photos make orientation foolproof.
