1.   Rome

a.   Colosseum:

Colosseum is the greatest remainder of the ancient times, the typical amphitheater, the essence of architectural fineness and an engineering wonder. The Colosseum has been dubbed countless ways, but there is just no way to grasp their sense until you see the blues of the sky by the flawlessly curved arches. Hence, for the travelers who are going to visit Italy, the Colosseum is a must see.

b.   Roman Forum:

Roman Forum is by distant one of the most important archaeological sites in the globe. This place provides you an unbelievable feeling as you factually stagger upon it on your quick walk around Rome. The historical importance of Roman Forum as the heart of the Roman kingdom can’t be overstated at all. The market halls, partial structures, pillars, and foundations of former temples give tribute to Ancient Rome, which stand here for a thousand of years. You will not find any other place in the world that celebrates the ever-mutating and incredible power of water like Rome. The Trevi Fountain is a fantastic work of art that is much more than a mere sculpture.  This triumphant example of Baroque art with its soft, natural lines and fantasy creatures embodies movement as the soul of the world. The fountain is a true wonder, a jewel of water and stone that is nestled between the palaces of the historic centre of the city.

c.    Trevi Fountain:

You can already hear its presence from the nearby streets. Indeed, as you get nearer the sound of its gushing waters grows constantly more intense, reaching a crescendo in the square, where you will find the most breathtaking sight.   Suddenly, the space seems to open out and you stand before a symbolic representation of this great force of nature, a tumultuous spring that seems to flow out of the ground.  The light and shade effects on the marble make the wind seem to bellow through the drapes and locks of the statues, agitating the waves, creating an extraordinarily intense and spectacular scene. In this Baroque creation, the architecture itself seems to come alive with the current of the revitalizing waters.

2.   Vatican City in Rome

Vatican is completely detached state; and free entrance. the right of entry to its superb collections is only through the Rome. This place is home to a number of the world's most priceless art as well as the art collections.

3.   Venice Canals

Venice is a town of islands and the canals have long been, in various ways, the city's streets.

5.   Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is a holiday heaven, perfectly to be stayed in for as long as possible. This coast is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a dramatic stretch of shoreline along the Sorrentine Peninsula. The series of the Lattari mountains, straightly exposed to the sea and makes an indented shoreline with colorful villages. Besides, one of the main towns here is Positano, but the whole area is admired with tourists.

Under the deep volcano of Mt Vesuvius stand the ruins of Pompeii, it is an antique Roman city which is conserved in time by the explosion in A.D. 79. Nowadays, though not erupting but the shortened cone looms in excess of the Bay of Naples and big scale evacuation plans are on instant reserve. Here, the tourists can visit the site, walk along the old streets as well as see the engineering methods used by the Romans more than 2000 years ago.

Recomendation:

To do visit by train is a great and cheap experience, because exist 1º and second class,  regular or velocity train,   and different routes for all the country, This recommendation is because all the private services are very expensive.
