Rome Trip (1)

After a few weeks of planning, we finally manage to go to Italy's capital, Rome, the eternal city. This is after around 8 hours of travel from Trento by Train.

The night train (espresso) is surprisingly comfortable, although we didn't opt for the sleeping compartment, the normal compartment can be used for sleeping with some adjustment to the chair. The only drawback is that it can be pretty cold in the early morning.

We arrived at 6 am in the morning, had breakfast then put our stuff in the youth hostel.
The room has 8-bedrooms and since we had 13 people, occupying one room fully for us and another room shared with other people. The hostel itself is conveniently located near the main terminal, priced at euro 13.50 per bed per night.

We bought the daily ticket for public transport, which we used only twice a day. Central rome is full of tourist sites. Most of the sites there is located near to each other, perhaps a 10 or 15 minutes walk will take you from one site to another. So we did a lot of walking around rome.
