10 Things to do in Ludovisi / Via Veneto That You Shouldn't Miss
Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

We learned about this Enoteca while dining at our favorite trattoria in Rome. The shop is right next door and Fabio took the time to listen to us and learn what we like in wine. He made excellent suggestions catered to our taste and was not pushy at all. He is like a very knowledgeable friend recommending wine types. We shipped a case home and it arrived excellently packaged and secure. We will definitely order from Fabio in the future and this is one of the first places we will visit the next time we are in Rome!

5. Saint Patrick's American Catholic Church

St. Patrick's is a very understated, simple cathedral. Very quiet during its opening hours so if you're looking for a place to pray without tourists hovering everywhere this is the church for you. Priests are all American, so this was a great church for English-speakers looking to attend Sunday Mass or confession.
6. Santa Maria della Vittoria

Reviewed By CPaM68 - Texas, United States
The cathedral was down the street from our hotel and was actually not on our list of things to see or tour while in Rome. We love touring old churches and cathedrals in Europe, but in Rome, there is one on nearly every corner (Rome reportedly has over 600 cathedrals) which makes it impossible to see them all. However, one afternoon as we passed the cathedral, we noticed it was very busy and decided to stop in and take a look. We later learned that the basilica has become extremely popular since it appeared in the novel Angels & Demons, written by the American author Dan Brown. Santa Maria della Vittoria (Our Lady of Victory in English), dates from the seventeenth century and was built to commemorate the Catholic armies of Emperor Ferdinand II's victory at the Battle of White Mountain. Although the church’s exterior isn’t very impressive, its interior is extravagantly decorated. No surface is left unembellished: everywhere you look you see colorful pilasters and columns, gilded stucco, marble reliefs, dynamic statues, and vibrant paintings. There is very little natural light inside the church. It is lit with candles which creates a dark but special atmosphere. One of the most notable parts of the church is the Cornaro Chapel that houses the Ecstasy of Saint Teresa, a sculpture by Bernini that is considered to be a sculptural masterpiece of the Baroque period. I would highly recommend visiting, however, the church is relatively small so prepare for tight quarters during tourist season. Touring is free and does not require a reservation. (PaM)
