A Visit to Rome, Italy
European Travel, Shopping on TravelRome the capital and the largest city in Italy is located in the Lazio region. Known as the “Eternal Cityâ€, Rome is situated on the River Tiber. The Vatican City, inside Rome, is an independent state presided over by the Pope. When you think of Rome some of the many major tourist attractions normally come to mind such as the Colosseum, the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain, museums and amazing shopping. Rome is all of that and so much more in combining the past with the present. Near the Spanish steps is the shopping area called Via dei Condotti where many well known designers have luxury boutiques.
During our visit to Rome we visited the world famous tourist attractions as well as open air markets and small boutiques. While shopping in one of the smaller boutiques in Rome I was able to purchase an absolutely beautiful patent leather Valentino handbag. In another smaller boutique we were able to purchase Italian dress shirts. The service and conversation we received in the smaller boutiques was excellent. The sales clerk was kind enough to provide us with the suggestions on where to have lunch. The gelato after lunch was delicious which made for a perfect way to end a pleasant shopping and lunch experience in Rome.
