Fun Daytime Things To Do In Rome For The Family

By Debra Moore


So many things happen in Rome. So many quotes come from this ancient city. It is not only the buildings and the sculptures that you can learn from. It is also the culture that will tell you so much more about the city. Not only are there fine restaurants to go to at night, but there are fun daytime things to do in Rome as well.

Travelling is about learning. You can go to university and study a text book. However, you will learn so much more by mingling with the people, sampling the food and studying the architecture. You will learn something new everyday. Most people learn something about themselves as well. There is a lot of growth that takes place when you travel.

Don't forget your espresso as you take a break from your shopping. You may have had plenty of espressos at home. However, you have to realise that this is where the real espresso comes from. Just like this this is where gelato and pizza come from. There are many coffee shops that you can relax at. The most famous of them, being Galleria Alberto Sordi.

Apart from espresso, there is also a range of other coffees available. Start with a cappuccino or a macchiato. You may find that this is completely different from what you are used to. It is always a good idea to experiment with the foods and the drinks from another country. This is how you learn more about the place as well as the people.

The Colosseum is another site that you can't miss out on. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. There are even separate tours that are arranged for kids. They will have the chance to experience life as a Roman back in these times. There are props available for along with costumes so they can pretend that they are a gladiator.

The Trevi Fountain is a must see. This isn't any old fountain. This is a special place where you will make a wish after throwing your coin in one of the most exquisite fountains. It has been around since the beginning of time. Be warned that it gets very crowded so you have to go early. The design is typically Baroque in nature and definitely something to be appreciated. Word says that if your wish comes true, you will find yourself back in Rome.

After you have done shopping, eating and drinking, you may want to think of going back to look at some more art. A lot of people are under the impression that Rome only houses ancient pieces. However, you will be surprised to find that there is a huge gallery which is dedicated to modern art. This is something to think about for the lover of contemporary art.

You can't leave Rome without doing a little shopping. It doesn't mean that to spend a fortune. There are many little cobble stone streets with shops that are really great. You can find great deals at the markets. Of course, if you do have more money to spend, you can head out towards the Colosseum where there are more boutique shops. Here you will find clothes and jewellery.
