The “Eternal City”! None other than Rome, Italy. I’ve been here many times both with and without my wife and daughter, and each visit has revealed something new. The city has a spirit and a sense of excitement all its own. How can you visit Rome and not help but be overwhelmed by the sheer scope of its history, its beauty and its wonder? When I’m in Rome I feel like I’m in a type of interactive museum. Each brick, each building, they each have a story to tell! But as exciting as Rome is during the day, it’s even more exciting at night. Nightlife in Rome is sure to keep you up until the wee hours of the following morning! 

Each city in Italy has its merit. But Rome! Rome is cut from a different piece of fabric. The same great locations that make Rome so alluring during the daytime - the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, and the Coleseum just to name a few - are even more impressive when the sun goes down and the city lights are turned up. An evening stroll or a sightseeing jaunt is practically a tradition in itself. In a word, Rome is breathtaking during the evening hours - especially Castel Sant'Angelo, Piazza San Pietro, the Roman Forum, and the Vittorio Emanuel II Monument in Piazza Venezia. All breathtaking under the city lights and all worth seeing after sunset. It’s locations like these that give nightlife in Rome such a good name! 

When you hear about nightlife in Rome, it’s more than just discos and nightclubs. Certainly there are plenty of both for you to pass away the late night and early morning hours. But those clubs can wait - at least for a little while - the night is young! There’s an entire city to see out there!
