Rome
Rome layers 2,800 years of history into one walkable, chaotic, endlessly rewarding city. Ancient amphitheatres sit beside baroque fountains, espresso bars and trattorie where the carbonara has not changed in generations. Come in spring or early autumn, walk everywhere, and accept that you will leave with a list of things you missed — that list is the reason everyone returns.
