From the Publisher

"Rome Condensed" contains information on the city’s key highlights, facts and history, sights and activities, the best shopping, eating, entertainment and accommodations. The guide also has walking tours complete with full color maps especially designed for the independent traveler: amble through the Villa Borghese, Rome’s most popular park; take a mosaic and monument meander and see such grand monuments as the Roman Forum and the Colosseum; or stroll along the Appia Antica, known to ancient Romans as the regina viarum (queen of roads).Not too compact to realize that Rome is a city for the senses, "Rome Condensed" also gives hearty cultural tidbits to enjoy dolce vita to the fullest. Get your cultural fill, but make sure to leave time for more hedonistic concerns: eat till you can eat no more, and get drunk on wine, architecture and sunshine.
