St. Peter’s Square
Located in front of St. Peter’s Basilica at Vatican City, this large square plaza is named after Saint Peter, an apostle of Jesus considered as the first Pope by Catholics. Now, if you are in Rome, you would definitely want to catch a glimpse of the Pope. Try your luck at St. Peter’s Square as you also start your tour of Vatican City.
Built-in 1670 by the disciples of Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the square is the site for most of the Vatican’s key events. St. Peter’s Square is known for its architectural grandeur, with 248 columns and 88 pilasters surrounding the square in a colonnade of four rows. Around 140 statues of saints and previous popes stand on the columns. The center of the square has an obelisk that was brought from Nero’s Circus in Egypt.

Colosseum
The first image that pops up in mind when you think of Rome, Italy, is the Colosseum. This iconic landmark should be one of the first places to visit in Rome. Built around 70-80 AD during the Flavian rule, the Colosseum is an enormous amphitheater with a past that is equally glorious and gory. Built to host public activities such as executions, games, gladiator fights, and animal hunts, the Colosseum could accommodate more than 50,000 people at a time.
After having a bloodied yet celebrated run for centuries, years of neglect and natural disasters led the Colosseum to lose its sheen. However, the Colosseum still remains one the most popular architectural wonders the world over and a top favorite among tourists.
