I had the pleasure of visiting Rome earlier this year for the first. Phew, what a fascinating city it is. It seems that around every corner there lurks something of amazing historical interest. Coming from a country with little history Rome is incredible.

We were particularly interested to see a map of ancient Rome at the Rome Colosseum and we compared it to Rome today and though the city is now much bigger so much is still around. Ancient Rome to Modern Rome - incredible how the past is still present and it all seems interwoven.

Before I go on waffling I wanted to tell you about a lovely hotel we stayed at in Rome called The Maison Dell'Orologio. The hotel is right slap bang in the middle of the ancient part of Rome and it really was rather good and very inexpensive too. Do try it when you are next in Rome.

Maria's reply: Thank you so much for sending me your tip and next time I am in Rome I will definitely visit the hotel. I agree with you about the map of ancient Rome being fascinating to look at, incredible isn't it?
