You’ve heard the saying, “When in Rome,” right? If you’re going to do as Romans do, you might as well do it right. Indulge in the rich history of the Italy’s largest and most populated capital city. In addition to being one of the oldest continuously occupied cities in Europe, Rome is among the hottest tourist destinations for good reason.
History buffs come to see the architecture. Art lovers marvel at the work of legends. Foodies get to experience the country one bite at a time. Families get to experience a different culture together. There’s a lot to be said about traveling to Italy.
Here are five ways to make your trip abroad extra memorable:
Create a custom embroidered or woven patch that you can hand out to the people you meet while you travel. People want to have something to remember you by. Create patches with your email address on them. Encourage your new friends to stay in touch with you by handing them a thoughtful gift.
Learn Italian along the way. Impress the locals with knowledge of their native tongue. Order a menu item the way that Italians do and make sure to say, “Grazie!”
Get to know classic artists Michelangelo, Raphael, and Bernini. See their artwork up close and personal. Where else will you get the opportunity to see great Italian art than when in Rome?
Visit the Colosseum. One of the Seven Wonders of the World, the famed amphitheater was begun by Emperor Vespasian and inaugurated by Titus in the year 80.
Make it special for your significant other. If you’re lucky enough to travel with your love, head to Monte Mario where you’ll find the Zodiaco terrace. See the stars like never before. They’re spread out over the city like a carpet.
