    After graduating from architecture I spent an exceptional month there. The different views glimpsed from each street before you walk down them was supurb and the skilled artists definately left their stamp on the city.

    I spent a few months painting in Florence in my youth and fell in love with Italy. I visited Rome briefly, and it is so amazing. I can imagine living there for ten years and still not have run out of things to do. I always wanted to live in Italy, but moving to France seemed like a more practical thing to do.

    I've travelled a lot in Europe for business and leisure, but never to Rome. I think the whole family would enjoy it, I'm adding it to our must-visit list now.

    This has been a most interesting and fascinating Lens...reading about the Colosseum and the Forum brought back memories of how life was a millenium ago. I recently read that Roman coins are still being unearthed along the network of Roman roads throughout europe, some 2,000 years after the fall of the Roman Empire. How Amazing!

    One of the drawbacks of the United States is the distinct lack of historical buildings - of course William Tecumseh Sherman burning down Atlanta didn't really help in that respect.
