Chronicles of Roma
Rome, the Eternal City, was founded in 753 BC by Romulus and Remus, its mythical founders. Over the centuries, Rome has evolved from a small, agrarian town to a powerful empire, leaving behind a rich architectural legacy from ancient ruins like the Colosseum and the Pantheon to Renaissance masterpieces like St Peter's Basilica. Today, Rome is a city of contrasts, where ancient history meets modernity, and its vibrant cultural identity is reflected in its street art, food scene, and lively nightlife. The city's architectural landscape is a testament to its complex history, with ancient, medieval, and Renaissance structures standing alongside modern buildings, a true reflection of its dynamic, ever-changing nature.
Best Time to Visit
Full Roma guide →Best months
The best months to visit Rome are May and June, when the weather is warm and sunny, with average highs around 25°C, and the crowds are manageable. July and August can be hot, but the city's festivals and events make it worth visiting.
Peak / festival surge
August is peak tourist season in Rome, with the highest hotel prices and largest crowds. Prices skyrocket during the Festa della Madonna dell'Assunta, a major festival honouring the Assumption of Mary, and the Notti di Roma, a series of summer concerts and events. Book well in advance, as prices can double or triple during this time.
Budget shoulder season
April and October are the best budget shoulder months, with mild weather, fewer crowds, and discounted hotel prices. Enjoy the city's beautiful spring blooms in April, or the harvest season in October, with plenty of opportunities to sample local produce.
Weather & packing
Rome's climate can be unpredictable, with sudden rain showers even in the summer. Pack layers for your stay, including a waterproof jacket or poncho to be prepared for any unexpected downpours.
