You can’t visit Rome without stumbling across its ancient history, with images of Gladiators fighting in the Coliseum, worshippers at the Pantheon or the gentry roaming the Palatino immersing yourself in the experience is easy.

Although being located very close to the ancient heart of Rome (the Central Station marks the district’s south-western border), the picturesque neighborhood of San Lorenzo seems as a bit of an outsider on the map of the city. Its carefree appearance surprises with delightful charm and the elements of urban decoration make it a paradise for students, artists and all other kinds of free spirits. The positive vibes resound throughout the whole district and the characteristic traces of shabby chic paint a picture of freedom and joy that make easily up for what the surroundings may lack in terms of neatness. It is also where you will find dozens of inviting bars, pubs, cafés and clubs themed with eclecticism and open-mindedness. To put it in a nutshell, San Lorenzo is the spot to roam in Rome after dark and below you will find a short walkthrough through the most notable places to visit there.

A trip to the local market can be one of the best Roman experiences for visitors and tourists. Local markets are one of the greatest ways to connect to the local culture and observe and experience the everyday life of local residents. But it’s important that you join in the action – not just walk around and observe. Talk to the vendors, ask for the names of those fruits and vegetables you’ve never seen before. Buy some local artichokes and compliment the vendor on his produce! Get to know the city AND its people!

Brimming with fascinating history, impressive architecture and a wealth of art and culture, Rome is a city that is just waiting to be explored. The city’s fabulous collection of numerous museums, which range from the impressive National Rome Museum to the fantastic National Gallery of Modern Art, allows visitors the opportunity to explore Rome’s effortless blend of the past and the present day.

Housing over 900 churches, Italy’s enriching capital boasts enough holy establishments to last you a lifetime, making deft itinerary choices something of a headache. However, visitors desiring an introduction to Rome’s notorious religious wealth should certainly not miss the most influential sanctuary of all, San Giovanni in Laterano; the Catholic Cathedral of the diocese of Rome.

The grandeur and splendor of ancient architecture is only one face of Rome – the other is that of eternal fun, as expected of the Eternal City. While it is said the New York is the city that never sleeps, you can easily come back to that with a statement that Rome is a party that never ends. What makes Rome stand out in terms of nightlife in general is that the clubs don’t get going until well after midnight, so it should come as no wonder that parties can last much up to the late morning/early afternoon hours. This is a natural consequence of the usually long (if not longish) ‘before parties’ in the form of a dinner, where all the important decisions are made – where to go, where to park, who to call, etc. For an outsider this all might appear a bit odd and go on for, like, forever, but the Italians seem not to rush when it comes to good time – they know how to enjoy it, so when in Rome, do as the Romans do, and let the walkthrough below help you choose where you want to do it.

A must see for military and history enthusiasts and especially for fans of Dan Brown or even Assassin’s Creed, the monumental Castel Sant’Angelo towers above the Tiber River in Rome’s ancient core, offering visitors a fascinating insight into the capital’s opulent heritage.

Otherwise known as the Mausoleum of Hadrian in reference to its original function, this cylindrical landmark has enjoyed a rich and colourful past spanning almost 2,000 years and still remains an integral and worthwhile attraction amidst a city bursting with treasures.
