My Virtual Vacation Day 18—Roma

Posted by Imagery Photography on September 24, 2020

We had hoped in retirement to travel the world. So far we have done a pretty good job with trips to Mexico, Hawaii, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain and The Czech Republic. However the pandemic has stopped all of that for a while. So while waiting for Africa, Alaska and Scandinavia, our current travel is going to have to be virtual. Today’s stop is The Eternal City, Rome.

Rome is too big for one post so there may be others. We spent 5 days there and it was not nearly enough time. We used the “City Hopper” bus to get around but still walked close to five miles each day.

Rome Domes

Rome has the most Obelisks of any city in the world. That includes 13 ancient Roman and Egyptian obelisks. That said, it has even more domes. There are literally hundreds of domes with in the city. It was a favorite building technique during the growth of the ancient city. Some are spectacular and some not so much so or in need of repair. Many are parts of churches usually in the bell towers.

These are just a few that we saw during our recent trip.
