Hey wanderlust buddies! 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Ever stumbled upon the Ponte Rotto while strolling along the Tiber?
Its name literally means "broken bridge" but lemme tell ya, it's actually history frozen in time! 🕰️
This ancient fella was the first stone bridge in Rome, and back in the day, it was the place to be. Now it's got that "I've seen things" vibe, with just one arch peeking out of the water like an old Roman playing peek-a-boo! 😄

Snap a pic with it because... well, it's not like it's going anywhere, right? 😉

🎉 Have you ever stood at Piazza Navona and wondered about the stories this place holds? Right here, the magnificent Church of Sant'Agnese in Agone stands as a beacon of Baroque architecture, built on the very site where the young Christian martyr, Agnese, was said to have met her fate during the Diocletian persecutions.

👀 But wait, there's more beneath the surface. Dive into the underground of Sant'Agnese to uncover a medieval oratory where mysteries of faith and history intertwine, including a marble relief by Alessandro Algardi depicting the miracle of Saint Agnes's hair.

🏛️ Designed with a captivating concave facade by the genius Borromini and holding the secrets of the Pamphilj family in its crypt, this church not only signifies religious devotion but also monumental artistry from the 1650s.

🌟 Whether it's the golden splendor of its interiors, the soaring cupola, or the whispers of history echoing through its crypt, Sant'Agnese in Agone invites you on a journey through Rome's heart and soul.

Hey, travel buddies! 🌍✈️ Ever stumbled upon that spot in Rome where it feels like time has stopped? Let me spill the beans on one such hidden gem: San Pietro in Montorio. 🏦

Picture this: a place founded in the 9th century, soaking in stories, including the legend of St. Peter’s crucifixion right on this spot. Fast forward to the late 1400s, and boom – the church gets a Renaissance makeover 🖌 🎨with some help from those generous Spanish royals.

The cherry 🍒 on top? The Tempietto del Bramante. This architectural marvel, squeezed into the early 1500s by the genius Bramante, is a nod to ancient Roman vibes with its circular design and a dome that’s anything but simple. It’s like Bramante was dropping architectural mic drops left, right, and center with those 16 granite columns. And let’s not get started on the interior – it's a cozy spot that punches above its weight in elegance and artistry. Plus, the place got a dramatic twist in history – from being a makeshift hospital during a siege to becoming the HQ of the Reale Accademia di Spagna. Talk about a plot twist!

So, if your Rome itinerary needs that sprinkle of architectural magic and layers of history you probably won’t find in your average guidebook, San Pietro in Montorio is your go-to. And trust me, your Insta feed will thank you. 😉📸

🍝 Hey, pasta lovers! Ever wondered where fettuccine Alfredo was born?

Look no further than il Vero Alfredo! In 1908, Alfredo Di Lelio whipped up this creamy, cheesy concoction to satisfy his wife's postpartum cravings, and the rest is history!

The original recipe was as simple as it was delicious: homemade fettuccine, butter and lots of parmigiano. That's all you need to taste the love this amazing dish brings to the table. 🍽

Fast forward to today, and Alfredo's legacy lives on at Piazza Augusto Imperatore. Now it's your turn to indulge in the magic of these "blondes” (the nickname Alfredo gave to this delicious dish). Trust me, you don't want to miss this taste of history! 🤤
