Rome. Pop. 2,705,603. Currency - Euro. Language – Italian. Time Zone GMT + 1 hour. Main Airports – Rome (Leonardo da Vinci Fiumicino FCO, Ciampino CIA). Best Time to go – All year round destination. Rome is the capital and largest city of Italy and is located on the river Tiber. The city is also home to the Vatican City - the independent Papal State. Known as the "Eternal City", and the “The city of the seven hills”, Rome was founded by the twins Romulus and Remus on April 21, 753 BC, according to an old legend. Legend apart, archaeological evidence points to the establishment of a settlement in the 8th century BC, which was to eventually become the hub of the Roman Empire. Historically and architecturally the city developed under five broad periods: Ancient Rome (Colosseum, Pantheon, and Circus Maximus); Medieval (Santa Maria Maggiore, and San Paolo Fuori le Mura); Renaissance and Baroque (Palazzo Chigi, and Palazzo Madama); Neoclassicism (Monument of Vittorio Emanuele II); and Fascist architecture (E.U.R. district, and Palazzo della Farnesina). Other architectural attractions for visitors to the city include: Roman Forum; Tabularium; Palatine Hill; Fori Imperiali; Palazzo Massimo; Vatican City and Saint Peter's Square; The Spanish Steps; Trevi Fountain; and Villa Borghese. Economically, the city has grown since the end of the second world war and rivals the performance of both Turin and Milan, although the latter retains a traditional rivalry with Rome. Along with strong technologies, communications, tourism and service sectors, the city is home of the Italian film industry and the Cinecittà studios. Rome is also a famous sporting venue, hosting the 1960 Summer Olympics and home to Serie A football clubs A.S. Roma and S.S. Lazio. Rome has an enormous number of eateries serving all sorts of dishes including: Carciofi alla romana (artichokes, Roman style); Bucatini alla Amatriciana (a pasta dish); Abbacchio alla "scottadito" (lamb chops); Pizza al Taglio (Pizza by the slice); Panini; and Trippa (tripe). This can all be washed down with a regional or house wine, which are invariably good – most trattorie (family-run restaurants) would not dream of serving inferior wine.
