CITY GUIDE ROME IN 72 HOURS If you had to narrow Rome’s many fetching attributes down to one single selling point, it would have to be how effortlessly the ancient past and the electric present merge everywhere: in its cuisine, its culture, and its hospitality. Because the city is compact and dense, three days is actually an ideal stay. Work your way from the once-hardscrabble, now thoroughly gentrified streets of Trastevere across the Tiber and through the gorgeous jumble of the Campo Marzio, then venture out to a less-explored suburb – on foot, or astride a vintage Vespa with a guide.
