Italy's capital layers 2,800 years of history, from the Forum and Colosseum to Baroque piazzas and the Vatican, in a compact, walkable centre. Eating well means Roman trattorie (carbonara, cacio e pepe, offal dishes), pizza al taglio and supplì; neighbourhoods like Testaccio, Monti, Trastevere and Pigneto are where Romans eat and drink.
