What to do and see in Pigna, Lazio: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites

February 11, 2022 Enriqueta Cusson

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.

Basilica San Marco Evangelista

Reviewed By Noraatc - Sudbury, United States

The Basilica San Marco Evangelista is one of those treasures of Rome overlooked by visitors. I was there before Christmas and had the basilica completely to myself. There are so many wonderful highlights inside this beautiful church: the apse mosaics, which date back to 827, the elegant portico, gorgeous wooden ceiling, notable tombstones... I am so glad I had a chance to visit it.
