The best way to really enjoy Rome is definetely by walking!Wondering through Rome's historical center is one of the most enjoyable aspects of being in Rome. You can admire the architectural details, live the street life, look into churches and ancient building strolling down Rome's narrow streets, go window shopping, and step into any caf? to get your caf? espresso. First, wear a comfortable pair of shoes and get out of home early. The most important sites in Rome can be all easily reached in a few hours walking. Spring or late fall is for sure the best time to visit the city, especially if you are coming with your children to Rome, the weather will be just perfect. Children are very welcome in Italy and in almost every Pizzerias and Trattorias you will find high chairs for babies on request. Most of these places don't rule out the fact that children eat only half-portions or share meals. The most amusing pizzerias for kids are the old fashioned ones. Here they can watch the chefs pound, stretch, and flip the though in the air which is something different they will always remember! At night Rome has never been as exciting as it is today: bars and clubs have increased to address an increasingly demanding clientele. In Testaccio area you will easily find all the best tastes for all budgets and a wide variety of places. Another equally popular activity is to simply relax with friends and enjoy a good bottle of wine in the so-called "enoteche" (wine bars)located in any of the historic center's beautiful squares.
