My Trip To Rome!

For the past five days, I've been in sunny Italy visiting Rome! In one word: Amazing. I've put together some photos of the must-see places if you're thinking about taking a trip to the capital city!

The Spanish Steps
A vibrant square with tonnes of steps surrounded by water fountains and roman buildings. The perfect place to watch the world go by!

Pizzerias
The pizza and pasta in Rome is out of this world! Now I know why they are classed as 'Italian' food. The British take on it just doesn't compare!

The Vatican City
You have to visit the home of the Pope when you go to Rome! The Vatican City is absolutely beautiful and such a spectacle. Make sure you go inside to look at all the wonderful sculptures and paintings as well.

Trevi Fountain
This huge fountain is amazing. The water is so clear and the building is so clean! There's also a great lively atmosphere around this monument.

Monumento Nazionale A Vittorio Emanuele II
This fabulous building is a museum about the history of the Italian Army. It's a spectacular monument with a buzzing surrounding area. One of my favourite places in Rome! 

Collosseum
You definitely need to visit the Collosseum when you're in Rome! It's absolutely amazing. Make sure you also go inside and pay for an audio tour. It explains the history of this ancient building, which is fascinating.

Foro Romano
These roman ruins can be found between the Collosseum and Monumento Nazionale A Vittorio Emanuele II. It's astonishing to see these ancient buildings in the flesh. Very surreal!

Hope you've enjoyed my holiday snaps!
