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.

Very historical church on the Aventino Hill. It is located in a quiet area, far away from the City Centre. That allows you to concentrate and stay calm far away from tourists. Check on the characteristic signage on the marble floor. Very old and original representing the Dominicans and its church.

Surely, most people comes to put the hand in the mouth of truth and believe they are as pretty as Audrey Hepburn... Anyhow, it is a very real chruch with a fantastic feeling. And relics of Sy Valentin is here as well. Don't forget to go down the crypt. Take some time and sit down and feel in the place. Light a candle.

The basilica built in 1000 is a pearl embedded on the island of Tiber between the Trastevere district and the ancient Jewish ghetto. After the flood in 1557, it was rebuilt and modernized in 1624, and then restored in 1852 with a baroque facade. Inside there is an ancient well made with the spool of an ancient column and with a bas-relief depicting the saints San Salvatore, Sant'Adalberto, San Bartolomeo and Ottone III. The coffered ceiling with paintings dates from 1865. This church is a place of worship and memory for martyrs of the 20th century. At numerous altars there are relics of many martyrs , for example, Maximilian Maria Kolbe, Jerzy Popiełuszko . A place worth seeing.

Wander past the Roman forum to Aventino around 6pm. Walk up the hill and breathe the peacefulness. Just before the Dominican church is a park with stunning views of Rome. But head past that to the very top to the Benedictine monastery of Sant' Anselmo. Across from the church is the "secret" keyhole of the Knights of Malta with an amazing view of St. Peter's basilica. When I discovered this 4 or 5 years ago, no one else was there. This year I see lines all through the day of people waiting to glimpse into the keyhole! That's fun, but the deep spiritual experience awaits in Sant' Anselmo itself. The church with its high wooden ceiling and mosaic floor has fantastic acoustics for chant, and the monks do not disappoint. I found this service as moving as the one I heard years ago. Beautiful call and responses from monks seated across each other behind the alter. Ensemble is not perfect and and there are slight intonation issues, but they sing chant very musically with care. Highly recommend!
