Ok so 320-odd steps is a lot, but you'll be really pleased when you get up there. Just amazing views inside and out!

The gardens here are a little oasis of quiet and shade right in the centre so head here if you feel like the crowds and pounding the pavement are getting you down. You can even indulge in a little sightseeing once you have recuperated with a visit to the Museo Carlo Bilotti, a comntemporary art museum housed in the Orangery.

A busy spot, but for a reason, the fountain is pretty awesome. Unbelievably grand. Don't forget to toss a coin over your shoulder into the fountain to ensure that you return to the Eternal City.

You can't go to Rome and not see these Museums, they are the most phenomenal place i've ever been. So much to see, the tapestries, the library, the Borgia Apartments, and of course the Raphael Rooms featuring the Sistine Chapel. Well worth quite a hefty queue, would advise going early.

Not long after I lost my husband and his mates to the slot machines, I lost my two sons to this gaming place. They seemed to have a pretty grand old time though and made loads of friends, plus i got some peace and quiet so it's win win all round.
