Rome Caput Mundi, eternal city, cradle of Western civilization and capital of Christianity. These are just a few of the appellations to describe this magical city which reveals itself to tourists as a concentrate of art, history, architecture and which, for three centuries, continues to have no rivals among the favourite destinations international tourism. Rome is a city that really offers everything, a true open-air museum where, no matter where you look, you can admire the traces of a thousand-year-old history and culture.
In recent years, the city has known how to renew itself, taking into account above all the latest artistic trends with an attentive eye on the international panorama. Now, the new tourist itineraries include avant-garde and contemporary museums and exhibition areas. An example: the new MAXXI, the first national museum entirely dedicated to the arts of the XXI century which, from May 2010, inaugurates a new course for the capital.
Beyond the old, it is time to look at Rome with different eyes, like cities like London, Paris and New York, a metropolis where the forms that art takes integrate ever more complex and fluid, interactive and multi-functional, in line with time.
