Rome Architecture

.

A heady mix of ancient ruins, beautiful churches, inspiring art and vibrant street life, Italy’s capital is one of the world’s most romantic and charismatic cities.

Rome is generally considered to be the "cradle of Western civilization and Christian culture", and the centre of the Catholic Church. Rome's history spans 28 centuries. While Roman mythology dates the founding of Rome at around 753 BC, the site has been inhabited for much longer, making it a major human settlement for almost three millennia and one of the oldest continuously occupied cities in Europe.The city's early population originated from a mix of Latins, Etruscans, and Sabines. Eventually, the city successively became the capital of the Roman Kingdom, the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire,
Its historic centre is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage
