Discussions tagged “Rome”

I'm planning my first trip to Rome and I want to make the most of my time there. I've heard about the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Vatican City, but I'm also interested in finding some lesser-known spots. What are your recommendations for both must-see attractions and hidden gems? How can I avoid the tourist traps and still have an authentic experience? Also, any tips on navigating the city and local customs would be appreciated!
