We also did not overlook the desire for gourmet food, so we personally experienced and selected hidden gems, including famous restaurants.
In addition, we have introduced several places overlooked in existing guidebooks so that you can feel the breath of Rome, and summarized its vast history in an easy-to-understand manner.
