Finally spring has come, the weather is hot and pleasant, flowers and trees are blossoming, and over all, summer holidays are approaching. We are all planning where to go to relax this summer, beach, mountain and why not a city of art.
For us Italians, the city of art par excellence is Rome, a magical and wonderful city that never disappoints. That we are talking about a week holiday or even just a week end of relax, Rome is always a very interesting destination that can offer to all tourists both cultural moments and fun moments. Rome, in fact, in spring shines with new lights.

But Rome is not just a city of art, it is also a sea city, with beaches, dunes and a very new touristic port. All this makes it absolutely unique and for this much sought-after by many people: with the arrival of the warm season, it is very easy to get to a lido in Ostia and enjoy a day out walking on the seashore.
But we also do not have to forget that May is also the month of flowers: then a must is a visit to the municipal rose garden that for a few days will open its gates to show to all lovers of roses more than 1,000 specimen coming from around the world.
Shows and events have been, however, organized to create a very special night, the Night of Museums, which will enable everyone to approach are with the free admission during unusual evening hours.
At the end of the month, do not miss the event that annually draws thousands of spectators, the Festival of Literature, with renewed authors and unpublished texts , it inaugurates the roman summer season.
Many attractive events are scheduled; the possibilities here are numerous in any time of the year, but particularly in this period. The beach of Ostia is really not far away from here, locals, restaurants, hotels, pubs certainly do not lack, but the Roman nightlife is among the most famous in Europe.
Furthermore there is also some news, some days ago a perfectibility project has been presented for the creation of a F1 circuit in Rome that probably will be already used in 2012. The area identified is that of Eur, between Viale dell’Arte, where it would be built a circuit of 4669 meters to cover in a bit more than a minute and a half, at an average speed of almost 180km/h.
This is a great sportive project that will help attract new tourist flows and at the same time create new jobs. The Grand Prix of Formula 1 is a part of the range of initiatives designed to create the Second Touristic Pole in the capital, a new attraction pole aimed at different segments of the touristic market.
Next to the Grand Prix of Formula 1 in addition, a series of parallel structures will be activated, such as the Rome Fair, the Palazzo dei Congressi (Congress Palace), the Palazzo della Civiltà e del Lavoro (Civilization and Labor Palace), the future Cloud of Fuksas and many others.
This is a city that has a lot to offer and that in the future increasingly will have to. So hurry to organize your holiday in Rome and you can be sure that, whatever your interests might be, they will certainly be met by the varied range of offerings of this magical city.
