The grandeur of the historical attractions of Rome is magnified at night when they are brilliantly lit.
The imposing Colosseum comes to life with the valour and glory of the gladiators who fought bloody battles in the arena. The Arch of Constantine stands witness to the triumphant victory of Constantine over Maxentius and the ruins at the Roman Forum speak volumes about the Roman way of life. The beautifully sculpted Trevi Fountain and the Fountain of the Four Rivers radiate brilliance at night. For a feel of bustling city life, the Navona and Popolo squares are just ideal.
Sumptuous Roman cuisine at a local restaurant adds to the delight of the evening. Do not miss this unique experience while in Rome.

• The Colosseum: This is one of the best recognised landmarks of Rome. The Colosseum, now in ruins, is an ancient Roman amphitheatre that was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles.
• The Castel Sant’ Angelo: Originally the mausoleum of Emperor Hadrian, it was converted into a fortress for the Popes in the 6th century AD. It was named by Pope Gregory the Great after he saw a vision of an angel above the structure which was taken to herald the end of the plague in Rome.
• Trevi Fountain: A beautiful fountain built in the Baroque style with sculpted figures. You will stop here and can join in the tradition of throwing in a coin for good luck.
• Piazza del Popolo: The Piazza lies inside the northern gate in the Aurelian Walls, and was for centuries, a place for public executions. In neoclassical style, the piazza has an Egyptian obelisk of Rameses II in its centre. The piazza is also notable for its magnificent fountains.
