RomeNo place integrates its past into the present quite

like Rome, where history comes to life. Explore the

world’s most famous arena on your sightseeing tour

to the Colosseum. Here, you can almost hear the

stamping feet of the crowds gathered for gladiato-

rial combat. Nearby, the Forum Romanum marks

the former heart of the Roman Empire. Julius Caesar

gave many of his great political speeches there. On

your visit to the Vatican City, marvel at Michelangelo’s

breathtaking ceiling in the Sistine Chapel and look out

for the colorful uniforms of the Swiss Guard, protec-

tors of the Vatican City. Before you say “arrivederci,”

toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain to ensure a return

trip to the Eternal City.

Roman ForumRome, Italy

FlorenceFlorence marks the birthplace of the Italian language,

opera and the Renaissance, and works of art like Mi-

chelangelo’s statue of David and Botticelli’s The Birth

of Venus, still reside here today. As you stroll through

the city, pass by classical statues at the Piazza della

Signoria. See the domed cap of the Santa Maria del

Fiore Cathedral, better known as the Duomo, which

dominates the skyline. Opposite the Duomo, look for

the bronzed doors of Ghiberti’s Gates of Paradise at

the Baptistry. Walk across the Ponte Vecchio, a Me-

dieval bridge where many of Florence’s famed leather

and gold artisans keep shop. Then, visit a leather work-

shop, the perfect place to fi nd Florentine souvenirs.

Santa Maria CathedralFlorence, Italy

AssisiNestled between Mount Subasio and fi elds of olive

groves on a hill overlooking Umbria, millions visit the

town of Assisi each year to witness outstanding ex-

amples of early Renaissance art and to appreciate

its religious signifi cance. Experience both aspects of

this historical city at the Basilica of St. Francis, where

Giotto’s painted frescoes illustrate the life of one of

Italy’s most beloved saints. Here, the remains of St.

Francis are entombed in a stone crypt above one of

the altars. A local guide will also show you the birth-

place of St. Clare, who founded the Franciscan Order

of Poor Ladies in the year 1212.

Basilica of San FranciscoAssisi, Italy
