Rome Day 1

We arrived Ciampino Airport at around 10.30 am their local time. First thing, we headed to Alessandro Palace Hotel to settle our accomodation. It's located at Via Marsala, close to Stazione Termini.


After a quick fresh up, we headed to our 1st attraction, the gigantic Colosseum. We also conquered the other attractions nearby like Roman Forum, Campidoglio and Circus Maximus. We got ourselves a BTI ticket which costs 11 Euro that enables us to travel using the metro and buses with unlimited rides for 3 days.





























When we finally reach Circo Massimo was already in the evening. Thus, we decided to go for dinner somewhere near Piazza Navona. Generally, when u are in Italy, there are only 2 things that u would be eating; pizza/breads or pastas. We came across this small corner shop with lotsa patrons, be it their locals and even tourist indulging their scrumptious meal. We decided to give it a shot.





Pizza: (Below) Funghi, (Above) Aubergine flavour



The pizza was really nice coz it's thin crustand the fillings on top of the bread is juicy/moist and not dried or burnt. Overall, it was GOOD.
