Happy Birthday Rome!

written by Young in Rome April 21, 2011

Buon Compleanno Roma! Today is Rome’s official Birthday, with too many candles on its cake to count (over 2,000)!

Best of all this means lots of free, fun events, including (more)FREE museums! We suggest the MACRO (Rome’s Museum of Contemporary Art), and the Ara Pacis (first-century Emperor Augustus’s monumental Altar of Peace). But don’t forget Raphael’s Fornarina in Palazzo Barberini and the Capitoline Museum’s ancient sculpture in the industrial setting of Montemartini Centrale!

The full list of free museums can be found here:

Enjoy!

My Story

A smidgen about me: growing up bouncing back and forth between Rome and Northern California, I eventually moved back to the Eternal City to finish college and then decided I liked gelato too much to move away again. Today I split my time between Tunis, where I work for an international organization, and wandering around my beloved Roma in constant search of bookstores and the perfect espresso. Read more…
