Good morning Italy Lovers.
Live from Venice, a bit away from usual tourist paths, Sestiere Santa Croce has a lot to tell about Venetians ' every day life.

Venice is filled with many great monuments and hidden beauties that are just as worth your attention.

⭐Among all of its dark, narrow passageways and alleys to nowhere, Venice preserves plenty of lovely historical building.

⭐Scala Contarini del Bovolo is in a tiny courtyard, recalling biblical visions of Jacob’s ladder and the tower of Babel.

⭐A brick tower perforated by Renaissance openings connected on the right of the viewer to 3 airy loggias ending in a panoramic terrace.

⭐The staircase Contarini is over 26 meters high, 4,70 meters the diameter.
It is a fun experience to climb up, ascending the over 80 steps counter-clockwise. The view of Venice is really amazing!

⭐ Multicolored rooftops stretch out from all sides with some of Venice’s most spectacular landmarks sticking out from below.

Trajan's Market, one of the most imposing and fascinating buildings of Ancient Rome, is problably the first multi-purpose building of ancient times.

☑ With its remarkable size and its complex architecture, Trajan's Market is certainly impressive but also quite mysterious: still nowadays it's not yet clear what was the exact purpose it served.
☑ Thanks to recent findings, it turned out to be even more than history's first mall: the archaeologists believe it to be a multifunctional government building. Apparently, it served many purposes, such as the administration of the city and also possibly as court house, but also housed some important public archives and a market.

☑ Amazing photo opportunity from the terrace over looking the Imperial Forum.
From the Main Hall you can enjoy an unforgettable view of Trajan's Forum from above, while in the lower levels you can still walk on the ancient roman road, the Via Biberatica, which runs along the shops of the ancient mall.

Palazzo Doria Pamphilj: a jewel right in the heart of Rome
☑️ Located along the central Via del Corso, Palazzo Doria Pamphilj is one of Rome’s most majestic and fascinating historic buildings. Still owned by the Doria Pamphilj family, which has guarded it for more than eight centuries, the palace is a unique testimony to art, history and noble tradition.

☑️ A shrine of art and architecture.
Built and expanded between the 16th and 17th centuries, the palace houses one of Italy's most prestigious private art collections. The famous Doria Pamphilj Gallery boasts extraordinary works by masters such as Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian, and Velázquez. Prominent among them is Velázquez's famous Portrait of Innocent X, considered one of the most realistic portraits in history.

☑️ A Journey into Baroque
The palace's interiors are decorated with frescoed ceilings, gilded stucco and luxurious furnishings. One of the most spectacular rooms is the Hall of Mirrors, a triumph of light and refinement. Each room celebrates the grandeur of the family that helped shape the Baroque Age in Rome.

☑️ A history of continuity
Unlike many other historic palaces, Doria Pamphilj has remained in the hands of the same family for centuries, representing an icon of continuity and dedication in order to protect an astoninshing heritage.

For those who are wondering if Rome can deal with the flows of pilgrims during 2025 Jubilee, we would like to share some information.
The Eternal City is visited by millions of tourists every year, so what is on progress with the Jubilee is something that Rome and the Romans are used to, from centuries.
On the other hand, the critical moment that affected the whole city due to several construction and restoration sites, especially during 2024, is finally over, and the city had been returned to us with plenty of new pedestrian areas and restored fountains and palaces.
1 - Via Ottaviano and Piazza Risorgimento
Pedestrian Area To The Vatican
Via Ottaviano has been totally refurbished and it is now restricted to vehicles. The neighborhood is filled with fancy shops and restaurants. From Via Ottaviano to Piazza del Risorgimento and Via di Porta Angelica getting to the Vatican is easier, as it's almost entirely pedestrain area.
2 - Castel Sant'Angelo - Piazza Pia - Via della Conciliazione Pedestrian Area To The Vatican
Piazza Pia is a brand new "piazza". So brand new that Google Maps is not updated yet.
The picture above is a project rendering, the actual piazza is even prettier, with two circular fountains and dozens of trees.
Basically, where now is the piazza, there was a very busy street, on which 3.000 cars/hour went by. A brand new tunnel has been made, and... as usual, during the escavation, they found some Roman ruins, a wash house, which dates back to II-III century AD. And that slowed the construction a bit.
Now the piazza offers an amazing view both to Castel Sant'Angelo and St Peter's Square.
3 - Passetto di Borgo - Finally Reopened To Travelers
After more than a decade of restoration, finally becomes available for travelers the site of Passetto di Borgo. Approaching St.Peter’s Square it is impossible not to notice a long wall, about 25-30 feet tall, which runs parallel to the colonnade. It looks like a fortification, similar to the ones built in ancient times to protect cities boundaries. The wall conceils a walkable gallery, leading to Castel Sant’Angelo. This covered corridor served as a hidden escape route from the Vatican to Castel Sant’Angelo when Popes were in danger. The Passetto played a key role in the Dan Brown's novel Angels & Demons.
The site will be included in our tours, 1-hour or 3-hour tour (the latter includes the Castle as well).
4 - Trevi, Four Rivers and Pantheon Fountains - 55 FOUNTAINS IN TOTAL HAD BEEN RESTORED
The three fountains mentioned above are the most renowned among tourists. Of course Rome has hundreds of fountains, 55 of which had undergone to restoration works. Almost all of them are ready.
TREVI FOUNTAIN deserves a note: you may have heard that now are new rules to access to the - small - square that hosts the fountain. The most relevant one is that now are allowed max 400 visitors at the same time.

5 - Subway Line C Construction Sites - Colosseo and Piazza Venezia
While most of the construction site in front of the Colosseum and Roman Forum had been removed, the one in Piazza Venezia has just begun last year. It will take almost 10 years before having back one of the largest and most loved square in Rome. But it will be worth to wait, as basically it will be a metro stop and an archeological museum.
Colosseum station is foreseen to open on September 2025.
Just a metro stop from the Colosseum, on Line C, will be also opened Porta Metronia, which is already described as an "archeostation", as a Roman barracks (II century AD) has been discovered during the escavation. That's the perfect example why building or restoring Rome is so difficult. But this another episode of Rome's long history

‘All roads lead to Rome’ is more than just a phrase—it’s a testament to the brilliance of the Roman Empire.

The intricate network of roads built over 2,000 years ago didn’t just connect cities and territories across Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa; it symbolized Rome’s role as the heart of an empire. These roads carried trade, ideas, cultures, and armies, making Rome the epicenter of ancient life.

Today, the phrase reminds us that all paths—literal or metaphorical—can lead us to something extraordinary. It’s a nod to Rome’s lasting influence on history, culture, and the way we connect with each other.
