☻Pincio Hill
The view of St Peter's from the Pincio just has to be seen to be believed. This elegant park with its avenues of shady trees gets its name from the Pinci famaily, who owned it in the 4th century. It's a popular place for a weekend passagiata.
Giuseppe Valadier designed the lofty gardens (which adjoin Villa Borghese) around 1809-14. Roman families, cyclists and skaters continue the tradition of past strollers, including Keats, Severn, Richard Strauss, Mussolini, Ghandi and King Farouk.
☻Roman Forum
Imperial Hub
archaeological site ; government
Piazza Santa Maria Nova 53 & Via di Monte Tarpeo
Tel: 06 399 67 700 (info)
☻Trastevere
Palazzi of Old
Although its traditionally proletarian nature is changing as the crumbling palazzi become gentrified, a stroll among the labyrinthine alleys of Trastevere still reaps small gems of a bygone past. Washing strung out from the apartments in best Mama-leone tradition has everyone sighing and reaching for the Kodaks.
The lovely Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere is the area's heart. It's a true Roman square - by day peopled by mothers with strollers, chatting locals and guidebook-toting tourists, by night with artisans selling their craft work, young Romans looking for a good time, and the odd homeless person looking for a bed. The streets east of the piazza is where you'll find the most photographed washing in the world.
☻Trevi Fountain
Toss a Coin
square ; film/tv locations
Piazza di Trevi
The famous custom is to throw a coin into the fountain over your shoulder to ensure you return to Rome. A second coin will have you falling in love with an Italian, and the third marrying him or her. Needless to say, the terraces around the fountain are always packed with tourists throwing coins.

First of all I hope you are aware that Rome shuts down in August. The Romans get out of town and head for the sea or the mountains, anywhere to escape the heat. The centre will still be busy, but there will most likely be lots of little shops closed. As for must sees. Let's recap the last answer
☻Castel Sant'Angelo (very cool, but not really a have to you'll see it strolling the centre without needing to go in)
Papal Fortress
castle ; fortress
Lungotevere Castello
Tel: 06 681 91 11 (info)
☻Colosseum (definitely, but hit the Palatine hill first and you'll have your pass for both that and the colosseum and you can skip the line at the colosseum)
Truly Colossal
archaeological site ; stadium/oval
Piazza del Colosseo
Tel: 06 39 96 77 00 (info)
☻Museo e Galleria Borghese (good, but you have to book)
Art Attack
art-related ; art gallery
Piazzale del Museo Borghese
Tel: 06 32 81 01 (info)
☻Pantheon (two thumbs up, must see)
Temple of All Gods
monument ; religious/spiritual
Piazza della Rotonda
Tel: 06 683 00 230 (info)
☻Pincio Hill(nah, way over rated)
☻Roman Forum (right beside Palantine hill and the colloseum, a great stroll)
Imperial Hub
archaeological site ; government
Piazza Santa Maria Nova 53 & Via di Monte Tarpeo
Tel: 06 399 67 700 (info)
☻Trastevere (a walk in this neighbourhood is a must)
☻Trevi Fountain (yup)
Toss a Coin
square ; film/tv locations
Piazza di Trevi
I also love Campo dei Fiori on a weekday morning when the market is on. It's great.
I would also tack on a trip to St-Peter's Basalica and a trip to the Sistine Chapel, but that is a full day. |

Have to see the Colosseum. Best place to go in Rome.
Then the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain.
After that the ruins ( near the Colosseum) and the Vatican are good places to see. |
