Rome

The Eternal City is eternally topping travel wish lists (see what we did there?). That’s for a good reason. Whether it’s great food or ancient history, Italy’s capital shines in every category.

Lazio is a well-known region and home to Rome. Rome is the capital of Italy! Lazio, which gets its name from “Latium,” has sandy beaches along the coast and hills and small mountains further inland. It’s home to famous lakes, like Bracciano and Albano; the lovely Castelli Romani hills; medieval towns and Renaissance gardens; and great archaeological sites, like Ostia Antica.

Visit Lazio if: you want to see Italy’s famous capital Rome; you want to mix up your city sightseeing with ancient ruins, small towns, and lush countryside; you’re a history buff; and of course art, architecture, food, and wine!
