It will surprise you, like a beautiful middle aged woman that has still plenty to offer and whose beauty is just been merely blurred by time passing by.

:: Sustainable tourism in Rome ::
Exploring, discovering and experiencing cultures and lifestyles around the Globe is a great gift that has been given to humankind. It has never been so easy to travel as we experience it now. All is there at our disposal and we can touch it with almost making an effortless effort. The question that arises is the way we touch it.
We, people engaged in Rome.info travel pages believe that one should treasure this opportunity and blessing of travel which is given, and treat it with respect and kindness. A visitor should be lovingly committed to making a low impact on the local culture and environment, protecting privacy and space in life of locals, and reward an invitation to their lives with gratitude and frolic. Sharing inspiration. While people like us on the other side are trying to help to ensure that development is a positive experience for local people; companies; and tourists themselves.
Sustainable tourism is regarded as responsible behavior and visitors to our pages are invited to embrace this attitude when travelling in Rome. It is more than a form of tourism as it represents human approach to engaging with cultures, local magic, be there as a human being - tourist, a business, locals at a destination or any other tourism stakeholder.

Vatican city (Citta del Vaticano), the papal residence, was built over the tomb of Saint Peter. The Vatican's position as a sovereign state within a state was quaranteed by the Lateran Treaty of 1929, marked by the building of a new road, the Via della Conciliazione. This leads from huge St Peter's basilica to Castel Sant' Angelo, a monument to a far grimmer past.
Vatican is the smallest state in the world, based in Rome in Italy.
Inside the Vatican city we can find 11 Vatican Museums with the restored Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, and Vatican Gardens, an enchanted place, a system of large and small gardens, fountain, fish pool and enclousure for rabbits. They date back to medieval times when vineyards and orchards extended to the north of the Apostolic Palace.
Vatican radio station broadcasts all over the world in 29 languages, it has it's television station, the dialy newspaper, post office with Vatican stamps, shops, offices and publishing house. All signposted, in highly-sophisticated system of organisation.
More than a thousand residents are responsible for the smooth, day-to-day running of this nerve centre of official Christianity, with of course the Pope at its head, all guarded by the Swiss guard.
Population: 920 inhabitants
