Rome,Italy
History and Culture
Romulus built the first city center after he killed his brother Remus in 753 B.C. Romulus ended up being the first of the seven kings of Rome. He started the basic characteristics that made Rome powerful (public works, institutional reforms, and aqueducts). Many years later, Rome became Christian and the Pope became more and more powerful as the years passed.
The Romans believed in many gods/goddesses. Each of them had a specialty. For example, Neptune was a god of water. There is delicious food made in Italy. There’s fine cuisines, pasta, and pizza!
Getting There
I got to Rome by plane. Like most intercontinental flights, I had to get off at a stop and switch planes to get to Italy. I left for Italy at 10:30 AM and arrived at 9:20AM. I felt that the end of time would come faster than the end of the flight. I ended up getting a flight with a hotel as well. The cost for both flights was plus the hotel was $2869.

Activities
The thing that I really liked to do in Rome had to be tourism. I looked at the wonderful sites of Rome. For example, the coliseum and the Pantheon were possible tour sites. I also had fun doing had to be gladiator school. I practiced learning how to fight for my life like a gladiator. This cost $76.97. We learned about gladiators and how they fight. These were the bomb.
