Rome in the Movies

Rome, Italy brings to mind the taste of fine Italian food accompanied by a glass of wine and a romantic city where lovers stroll hand in hand while exploring famous monuments known throughout the world. Millions of people travel to Italy every year to experience a Rome seen on screens in some of the most well-known movies in the world.

One of the most beloved movies in history that was filmed in Italy is Roman Holiday, a movie whose characters travel by Rome with famous sites in the background including the Trevi Fountain where visitors toss a coin over the left shoulder as a guarantee the return to this beautiful city. Eat, Pray, Love was filmed in various parts of Italy, including Piazza Navona square, one of the most popular squares in Rome. People gather to eat in sidewalk cafes and artists paint along sidewalks while three extraordinary fountains line the middle of the square. Angels and Demons was a blockbuster movie that showed a stunning history of monuments in Rome. The Pantheon built between AD 118-125 is the best preserved building from ancient Rome and is known as the temple for all gods. Santa Maria del Popolo is also featured in the film. The outside of the church is rather plain, perhaps a careful plan that only accentuates the awe inspiring beauty that waits inside. Massive archways, numerous sculptures and an altar that is truly beyond words.

Although tours are a popular way to see the many sites in Rome, staying in an apartment offers a wealth of advantages. The best way to actually see Rome is to take the time to walk the streets and explore the small boutiques, sit in the pews of the churches and spend time at the monuments to gain an appreciation for the rich history Rome has to offer. Apartments in Rome are available from studios to two and three bedrooms, fully furnished and within walking distance of many famous attractions. Families will love the privacy and the feeling of life at home and the cost is more affordable than staying at a hotel, especially for large groups. You can find apartments offered by Oh- Rome.com are close to all these monuments. For example, Campo de Fiori is an area with famous street markets and exciting nightly entertainment. Pantheon is a top destination for visitors who want to see the historical center of Rome and the Colosseum district features newly renovated apartments and is very close to public transportation as well as shops and restaurants. Renting an apartment in Rome allows visitors to truly see the numerous sites of the city to enjoy an unforgettable vacation of a lifetime. It’s like living in a movie!
