Rome in Detail: A Guide for the Expert Traveler
by John Moretti & Claudio Gatti

In this gorgeously illustrated guide to the Eternal City, travelers will be guided through familiar sites, which are an essential part of any stay in Rome--such as the Forum, the Colosseum, the Vatican, St. Peter's--as well as off-the-beaten-path cultural sites which see little tourism, but are exceptional for their historical richness and beauty.

In each of the nine neighborhoods, Rizzoli has selected one or two sites which are our favorites. Each of our favorite sites are identified in the walking tours with our logo.

Rome in Detail is the ideal guide for those who want to be introduced to every aspect of the city's exceptional cultural treasures, from familiar favorites to lesser known--but extraordinary--sites which see little tourism. For those who are repeat visitors to the city, this guide will help you experience the familiar sites anew and introduce you to off-the-beaten places which will further endear you to one of the most beautiful and intriguing cities in the world. The selection of hotels, restaurants, and specialty shops have been made with the same guiding principle: to include places which Italians themselves frequent so that the reader is sure to get the most authentic experience of the city.
