Rome is one of the world's great cities — a place where 2,500 years of history are layered on top of each other, where ancient ruins stand alongside Renaissance palaces and Baroque fountains, and where the food, the coffee and the pace of life are among the finest in Europe. Direct flights from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Rome operate year-round.
About Rome
Rome is the capital of Italy and one of the most visited cities in the world. The city's historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the sheer density of monuments, museums and churches within a relatively compact area makes it one of the most rewarding destinations in Europe.
The ancient city is represented by the Colosseum — the largest amphitheatre ever built — the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill and the Pantheon. The Vatican City, an independent state within Rome, contains St Peter's Basilica (the largest church in the world), the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel. The Baroque city is represented by the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, the Piazza Navona and the churches of Caravaggio.
Beyond the monuments, Rome rewards exploration at a slower pace. The Trastevere neighbourhood, across the Tiber, is a maze of narrow streets, ivy-covered buildings and excellent restaurants. The Pigneto neighbourhood is the city's most creative and bohemian area. The Campo de' Fiori market is one of the most atmospheric in Italy.
The food in Rome is outstanding — cacio e pepe, carbonara, coda alla vaccinara, supplì and the best pizza al taglio in Italy. The coffee culture is serious, and the gelato is exceptional.
