Roma, Lazio
So much of everything in one place!
Rome is a wonderful place to visit. I was amazed by the fact that the history of up to ten or more significantly different periods could be present at each single location. It seems like churches, plazas, governmental buildings, temples, stadiums, markets, forums, museums, estates, fountains, restaurants, scientific laboratories, fortresses, baths, etc. have often been built one on top of the other. The food is wonderful and some of the best casual dining on earth is in Italy but the bread and other baked products are strangely bland. It is a loud, fast moving city and very exciting compared to the relaxed countryside. I recommend a visit to Rome for anyone.
