20 Best Places to Visit in Italy
Rome
The city of Rome is the capital of Italy, and there are several attractions worth seeing while you’re there. One of the most bizarre places to see in Rome is the crypt of the Capuchin Brothers. The bones of over 3,600 Capuchin brothers are preserved in five chapels beneath the Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini church. You can learn more about this peculiar order of priests in the museum located there. There are more than 900 churches to visit in Rome, and even the smaller ones can be beautiful.
Another famous landmark in Rome is the Altar of the Fatherland, a huge stone monument near the Pantheon and Colosseum. Here, you can see a bronze statue of the king, Emmanuel, and many other stone statues.
