Discus Media presents a pocket guide to the Italian capital and its surroundings from the Nelles Pockets series of the German publishing house Nelles Verlag. The book describes in detail the history and attractions of Rome, provides updated information on the work of museums, restaurants and other institutions of the tourism industry. Separate chapters are devoted to Roman (not to be confused with Italian in general!) cuisine, cultural life and other features of life and pastime in the Eternal City. Despite the translated nature of the publication, the text and content of the book are maximally adapted for Russian travelers. The guide is richly illustrated and equipped with detailed maps.
