Sightseeing in Rome
There is an amazing amount to see in Rome. It would literally take years to see everything that Rome has to offer, so it pays to do some research before you go. Pick out the sights that you particularly want to take in, and try not to worry too much about the rest. You can always come back...
If you'd like to browse Rome's sights a little more visually, take a look at our map of Rome. All of the main sights are marked on the map, and clicking them will take you to the relevant information pages.
Outside Rome
If you've got time, and you want to get out of the city, there's plenty to see in the area around Rome too, including Tivoli, Ostia Antica (the ancient port) and Ostia Lido (the beach). If you just want to get away from the noise and rush of the city for a while, then take a stroll around the Villa Borghese gardens, or along the ancient Via Appia.
