Rome is the capital of Italy and one of the most historical cities in the world. This city of ancient civilization is one of the most imaginative cities and is also known as “the cradle of Christian Culture”. Vatican City (the most pious of the religious places in Christianity) lies within the boundaries of Rome and therefore Rome is equally destined by spiritual travelers across the globe. Webbed in history and ancient architecture, this city of seven hills is a must-visit for people edged in history, culture, religion, and literature (it's the city of Julius Ceaser) or by enthusiastic explorers.
Two airports service the city of Rome. These are Rome–Fiumicino International Airport "Leonardo da Vinci" (IATA: FCO, ICAO: LIRF) and Rome–Ciampino International Airport "G. B. Pastine" (IATA: CIA, ICAO: LIRA). FCO is the largest of the two airports and handles most international traffic. It is situated 35km away from the Rome city center. There is a well-developed public transportation system in place to ferry people to and fro from the airport. CIA is another airport within the city premises and mostly caters to low-cost carriers.
