A Magical Travel Destination: Rome
I have always dreamt about travelling to different places. It is my passion to meet with new people and get to know about their culture. Every place I have ever gone and every person. I have ever met gave me new perspectives
of life but one of them was really unforgettable for me. Rome was my first experience on abroad and I also think there are different reasons to pick Rome to travel. Rome is a city with great opportunities. Rome is a city for all, and its elegant vibe and hidden corners make it one great city to explore. I would love to share my experiences in Rome with you.
First of all, Rome has a special and different atmosphere. I adore big cities with historic fabrics and Rome was unforgettable for me for that reason. I still remember my first day in Rome. I had decided to walk on the streets without any plan. I took my map with me and started to explore the city. It was a sunny day but not very hot. I like both cold and hot weather hence I had chosen spring to visit that beautiful country, the climate was proper for me. The air
was filled with the smell of freshly baked cinnamon rolls. I was walking on a street that was covered by flowers in different colors. The sun was making my skin warmer… Beautiful Italian music was heard everywhere, I could hear it even at narrow streets. A friendly ice-cream seller smiled at me and suggested me that sweet, delicious dessert. I looked at my map and decided to go to Flavianus Colosseum. Everyone on the street seemed really nice and cheerful to me. While I was walking on the cobblestone pavement, I was lost in my thoughts. Suddenly I heard a voice of a street artist and a crowd of people near him. He was trying to sell me his painting. I smiled at him and kept walking on the street. At the end of the street, I saw the amphitheater… Colossal and impressive… Cultural trips are always my favourite because that atmosphere in historical places leads to different emotions both in my soul and on my mind at the same time. The sun was going down and the sky was being painted to very beautiful tones of red … A very ravishing view occurred in front of my eyes. I felt like the world had stopped turning for a while… That was the end of my first magical day and I was impressed by the ambiance.
Another reason for me to think of Rome as a good destination is their food culture. They are really good at making tasty food. On my next day in Italy, I woke up with a strong desire to make a culinary trip. I looked out from the white-colored window. It was raining. I put on my red raincoat and went out of my hostel room. My hostel was very old but very lovely at the same time. There were a lot of pictures on the walls which made me feel happy. When I was out, I remembered my childhood memories owing to the rain. My hometown, where I used to live when I was a little child, always had rainy weather. The rain caused a beautiful smell in the hostel’s little garden but I was starving and that feeling was keeping me from thinking about other things. While I was walking on the street, I saw a lot of cafes and a lot of people on the street despite the rain. I saw a small restaurant in a deserted street. There were green wooden tables and red chairs in the restaurant’s little garden. I ordered a small pizza with cheese, pepperoni, and watery tomato sauce, which was really delicious. After the pizza, I decided to taste an Italian dessert called ‘Cannoli’. It was a sugary roll which is very soft and delicious. While I was sipping my coffee and eating my cannoli, the rain stopped and it left a beautiful rainbow behind.
As a result, we all have different dreams but I believe traveling is always a good idea for people.“ The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page” said Saint Augustine. Also, I believe Rome is as a
good destination because it is a very historical city with great food and a very specific aura.
