Per usual, I loved reading this wonderfully-written Lonely Planet book, detailing all aspects of Rome. I used this book on my travels, and there are some lovely places detailed in this travel guide, which I just had to go to. Thank you Lonely Planet for your advice!

Some places to visit are:
- The Trevi Fountain, with many beautiful statues. Want to learn some history, and how to properly throw a coin into the fountain?
- The Pantheon, (No, not the Parthenon, though, they do have a book detailing all the places in Greek!) a 2,000 year old temple, which is now used as a church. Want to learn more about the dome, and how water enters the church through the opening in the top of the roof?
- And of course, don't miss out on the Colosseum!
You can learn more about the wonderfully interesting history of Rome, and catch some good places to stay, eat, rest, or whatever else you might want to do in Rome! There's also some information about shopping, and some day trips to places outside of Rome, or inside the city. Beautiful maps are also included in this book, along with information about entertainment, culture, and top sites!

For a book 19 cm tall, and 328 pages plus an amazing pull-out map, I would say it's jam-packed with very interesting details of places to visit, and the beautiful sites of Rome.

I would like to thank Lonely Planet for providing me with this book in exchange for this review.

Rome, from Lonely Planet. A great book, ideally to read when visiting Rome; it is also a very pleasant lecture when visiting other cities; however the included map will generally give you the wrong indication in that case.

I do like LP and have been a loyal customer for many years -but why, oh why, do they continue to have such useless maps? Not street indexed, and don't show all the streets. You have to buy a separate map anyway (or use the ones in Eyewitness Guides, which are superb), so why bothr takign up space with them, LP?
