Romantic Evenings in Rome
‘Love makes the world go around', is a very typical saying. In Rome which is traditionally pronounced as ‘Roma' however, all one has to get around is the word itself and he will find ‘Amor'. Amor, which is Latin for love. Rome then virtually casts the magic of romance in its very essence and the diverse attractions interspersed within its terrain help it to reach the senses.
The Janiculum Hills is a highly recommended natural site for a couple for it presents them with breathtaking views as their intimate conversation reaches an altitude. The only thing that interrupts them is the sound of the loud cannon shot which is a regular feature in this territory for it is rung on the behest of Pope Pius since 1847. This according to him, signals the symbolic unison of the ringing of all church bells in Rome. What better way to sanctify the affection of the beloveds than have the Eternal City shower you with the blessings.
Another beautiful place where a couple can escalate their loving accords in tranquility is the Aventine Hill or the Giardino Degli Aranica which is an orchard of orange trees and tantalizing scents. The Appica Antica although entrenched in a bloody history of Christian persecution is now a millennia old and a truly peaceful alternation to its past, suitable for lazy bike rides that give much pleasure to all tourists but the lovers most of all. The Villa Farnesina is an emblem and reflection of love from its core to core. It was commissioned by a banker Agostini Chigi and is full of erotic art or frescoes painted by Raphael on subjects evoking the idea of love. What is most interesting here is the history that informs that all these beautiful paintings would not have been complete had Agostini not allowed the love of Raphael, the painter's life, move in with him for he was so dazed in the feeling of this emotion at that time.
One of the most Romantic spots in the country is the ‘Temple of Roma and Amor'. Built in second century A.D, this temple warrants a visit by a couple in love for it was set up in honour of Venus and Roma, the goddesses of love. Recently opened to the public after a restoration period of twenty six years, this is a place impressive for its resilience throughout history and a novelty for the modern tourists to explore.
One of the most romantic things to do is the luxurious dinner at one of Rome's rooftop restaurant, Hotel Hassler. It is an expensive outing but the moments gathered here gazing over the famous Spanish Steps makes for an amazing Imagio. Sometimes, apart from the star gazing on the hotel terrace one can even end up bumping into star celebrities. The evening extends into the night and the best opportunity to visit the Ponte Milvio bridge popularly known as the lover's lane is at this instance. The night cannot end without a spicing up atmosphere of the open air live jazz music in Villa Celimontana and the extremely seductive tango dances. An amazing feeling envelops the spectator couples under this limitless sky.
