Roma Capitale, Capital city in Italy
Rome, known as the Eternal City, is a sprawling, cosmopolitan metropolis with nearly 3,000 years of globally influential art, architecture, and culture on display.
Ancient Rome was originally an Italic settlement dating from the 8th century BC that grew into the city of Rome and which subsequently gave its name to the empire over which it ruled.
The city is home to the Colosseum and the Vatican Museums, where Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel frescoes draw visitors from around the world.
Roma Capitale is the central administrative entity for the city, established in 2009, providing municipal services to residents and tourists alike.
