It's almost like you can feel the past in the air when you're walking through the streets -- like you can sense who came before you and all the momentous events in human history that took place on these hallowed grounds. Part of it, I think, is that you can't walk more than a few blocks without running into a major building excavated from a thousand years ago or a central sculpture/fountain built by Michelangelo or Bernini. It's a paradise for those who love history, food, art, beauty, or just people. Just like most European cities, Rome has its own, unique identity that it shares with no other.
