Museums of Rome

All year round Rome attracts many tourists.

This city has a rich history and various titles, but you can not call it a cultural capital, because the ballet and opera are rare here, and in theaters performances are only in Italian.

There are not as many art museums in Rome as there are in Moscow or Paris, for example, but they can impress anyone. You can visit the Pinacoteca, the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Galleries, the Vatican Library, the Capitol, the Pin-Clementino Museum, Chiaramonti, as well as the Anteon, the Colosseum, the Baths of Caracalla, the Catacombs of St. Callisto and the Palace of Nero.

In any museum, you can hear a story about the historical events that took place there at one time.

You should start your journey around Rome with the Colosseum, where gladiatorial fights once took place. It preserves the history of the great empire.

It is desirable to visit the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill, where the first republic in the world was born.

Ancient Rome has always been proud of its political system, its well-developed legal system, and the Thermae - the Roman baths, which were popular with almost all citizens.

Today, the ancient baths are open to the public, but you can not wash in them, but you can learn a lot of interesting things about the life of the ancient Romans. There are also working baths, which are very well equipped.

The Italians are also proud of the ancient sewers with a well-developed underground structure, as exemplified by the catacombs of St. Calliste.

You can learn about the dark history of Rome by visiting the Golden House of Nero, who was the most cruel Caesar in the history of the country. Here you can see his chambers and listen to the story of him and his deeds.

It is worth paying attention to the dwarf enclave state, which is located in the heart of Rome - the Vatican City. Many pilgrims visit it every year. Here is the residence of the Pope, who is the head of the Catholic Church.

Famous Vatican museums such as the Sistine Chapel, Belvedere Museum, Pin Clementino, Chiaramonti, Pinacoteca and others have firmly established their position among Roman museums. There is also a separate museum dedicated to contemporary art. The Vatican library holds the rarest books of great value.

Museums of Rome are loved by tourists from all over the world.
