Rome
***Rome
welcomed the great Holy Year of 2000 and expecially
for this occasion improved the accessibility of urban spaces,
services and buildings of public interest. Many projects have made
possible to eliminate numerous barriers.
Nevertheless, there are still buildings, places and services that
do not measure up to these requirements.

Excursions to...Tivoli
Very close to Rome, toward the mountains, is the height of the
Roman Empire. Visit the remains of Hadrian’s Villa, and the beautiful
fountains and gardens of the Villa d’Este.Amalfi
Coast
Once you are in Rome, why don't you enjoy a daily excursion to
the sunny and splendid Amalfi Coast?Its colorful towns are not all
very accessible, because are built on the rocky and steep coast, so
are characterized by narrow and stairy streets. But you can always
take advantage of the wonderful panorama that you would enjoy from
the minibus window, and stop in the unique and worldwide known cities
of Sorrento and Amalfi. |
