Rome rises from the Lazio Region in the central west of Italy.

Cradled between the Apennine Mountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea,

"the city of seven hills" is home to almost 3 million people.

seven hundred years before the birth of Jesus Christ.

that the foundations for the city were laid.

A city, that would soon become Caput Mundi ~ the Capital of The World!

Below the birthplace of Rome lays the Roman Forum ~ the Foro Romano.

Filled with temples, monuments and markets,

The Forum was the center of public life in Ancient Rome

and the most celebrated meeting place in the world.

When the Roman Empire fell in the 5th century,

the forum was reduced to a cow pasture...a mere vegetable garden.

But, the eight columns of the Temple of Saturn,

and the Arch of Septimius refused to crumble.

In the 17th century young Europeans travelers came to Rome,

searching for the roots of Western Civilization.

replaced by a trio of fountains, Baroque architecture, artists,

No Roman holiday is complete without making a wish at the Trevi Fountain.

Toss one coin into the Trevi, and one day you will return to Rome.

Toss in two coins and you will fall in love with a Roman.

If you're not looking for love, relax on the steps with a gelato.

Ponte Sant'Angelo was built by the Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century

as part of the grand entranceway to his mausoleum.

Rome may no longer be the capital of the world,

but it has long been the center of Christianity.

Today, modern pilgrims continue to cross the river,

guided by the bridge's angels as they make their way

Piazza Saint Pietro,...St Peter's Square.

And here, stands the world's largest church,

Filled with masterpieces by Bernini, Giotto, and Raphael,

designed by the brightest star of the Renaissance, Michelangelo.

From the dome look down upon the holy square

where two colonnades reach out like open arms

welcoming the faithful who gather in their thousands

As the sun sets on Rome, head to the island sanctuary of Isola Tiberina.

Let the rushing waters of the River Tiber soothe your senses,

that have been perfected by generations of Italian grandmothers.

This is just an appetizer, an aperitivo of what awaits in The Eternal City.

To really taste all of Rome's treasures can take a lifetime.

But be warned, it only takes a moment for Rome,
