ArtoursRome is a feeling born from a deep love for t

he eternal city of Rome. I worked as Tour leader and guide for several companies for the past 6 years. We do Tours, covering almost the entire city, in English,
German and Italian launguage. My love for Roma, or Amor spelled backwards, drew me since young years to have a great passion for history and culture of the country which adopted me with open arms. I grow up in the really heart of the old city in the area of Campo dè Fiori, main open air market, best place ever to grow up between open and friendly Locals, colourfull market stands and smiling customers. Since childhood my curiosity brought me to discover all the small hidden alleys,churches and hidden gems of Rome. I actually spend the most time on the streets making out of this city my home, out of its habitants my family, making it impossible to move back to Germany once my parents did:
so I found myself sharing the experience of a life time with persons from all over the world, trying to make them feel at home,feel the real atmosphere of this wonderful, interesting and eternal city. It was the best choice ever! I hope to have the opportunity one day to share all this also with you!

HAPPY KALENDAE IANUARIAE !!

January, for the ancient Romans, was "Ianuarius", the month dedicated to the god Janus.

Numa Pompilius, the priest-king who succeeded Romulus in 715 BC, wanted the month immediately following the winter solstice to mark the beginning of the new year, which previously began in "Martius", the month of Mars, the god of war. He wished to bestow a sense of "Civitas" upon a people who until then were primarily warriors.

Janus, one of the oldest and most important Roman deities, was considered the "deus deorum", the god of gods, the only one alongside Quirinus without counterparts in the Hellenic world, though possibly in the Etruscan.

With his unique two-faced depiction, "Janus" looks both at the year that ends and the one that begins, representing simultaneously the moment of transition between what was and what will be.

He essentially serves as a kind of gateway, which is aptly referred to in Latin as "Ianua", so much so that the very origin of his name is linked to movement, deriving, it seems, from the verb "ire", to go.

Thus, Janus and the month dedicated to him, at the beginning of the new year, fit well into a symbolism indicative of the unstoppable transition between past and future, through that elusive and ungraspable moment which is the present, destined to die even before it is born in the continuous cycle marked by the passage of seasons and, with them, the life of man.

Therefore, we understand the validity of what Macrobius teaches us once again, saying that "the world always turns, moving in a circle and, starting from itself, always returns to itself"

St. Peter's Square: A breathtaking blend of history and beauty, where the grandeur of Vatican City meets the embrace of Bernini's colonnade. Located in Vatican City,it is a grand elliptical space designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini in the 17th century. Surrounded by a colonnade, it features rows of Doric columns topped with statues, creating a sense of embrace. At the center stands an ancient Egyptian obelisk, flanked by two fountains. The square is bordered by key Vatican structures, including St. Peter's Basilica and the Apostolic Palace. Known for its architectural and symbolic significance, it serves as a gathering space for important events and ceremonies in the Catholic Church. St. Peter's Square exhibits remarkable Baroque architecture. The key features include a massive elliptical space framed by a double colonnade consisting of 284 Doric columns and 88 pilasters. These columns form a symbolic embrace, representing the maternal arms of the Church. Statues of 140 saints adorn the colonnade's balustrade. In the center of the square, an ancient Egyptian obelisk rises, flanked by two fountains, creating a harmonious focal point. The obelisk originally stood in Heliopolis and was moved to Rome by Emperor Caligula. Bernini's ingenious design integrates the obelisk seamlessly into the square's overall composition. The façade of St. Peter's Basilica forms the backdrop, creating a stunning visual ensemble. The Basilica's impressive dome designed by Michelangelo further enhances the skyline. St. Peter's Square stands as a masterpiece of urban planning, offering a majestic approach to one of the holiest sites in Christianity. . .
