Rome (Civitavecchia)
Civitavecchia is the port city for Rome. Rome has always been and remains
the Eternal City. With its splendid churches, ancient monuments and palaces,
spacious parks, tree-lined boulevards, fountains, outdoor cafés and elegant shops,
Rome is one of the world's most attractive cities. Among the most famous monuments
is the Colosseum where spectators watched combats between muscled gladiators and
ferocious animals. Stop to see the remains of the Forum, once a political and commercial
center. Rome's squares were enhanced with such imposing structures as the Vittorio
Emanuele Monument and grandiose fountains like the Fontana di Trevi. Awe at
Christendom's most magnificent church, the Sistine Chapel. The busy square
Piazza Venezia is easily recognized by its imposing Vittorio Emanuele II Monument.

Peter's Square and St. Peter's Basilica, where for 200 years, Renaissance masters
worked on its design and created an unparalleled masterpiece. Visit Vatican Museum.
