Top Ancient Travel Destinations to Visit in Rome



If we talked about ancient civilization, one city that would come up in my list is the city of Rome. The city of Rome began its civilization as early as the 8th century BC, thus the part of the city with remnants of the ancient century is called Ancient Rome. The city is the capital of Italy with a population of over 2.8 million and a land mass of 1, 285.3 km2. It is considered one of the largest and the most populated city in Italy and much like the rest of the country, Rome is predominantly Roman Catholic and is long been the important center of religion and pilgrimage.  

The city of Rome with its long history of civilization is no wonder known for its rich cultural heritage with dated centuries ago and is until now noticeable in the city’s architecture and structures from parks, fountains, gardens, statues, obelisks, bridges and catacombs.
