Because a 1950s movie" "Roman Holiday" brought me to Rome, the ancient capital of Italian civilization. The encounter between Princess Anne played by Hepburn and The American journalist Joe played by Pike in the movie, and the ancient Roman scenery that runs through the entire love story that follows, has influenced a generation and made the eternal city of Rome full of temptation in people's hearts. After more than half a century, I finally had the privilege of following in the footsteps of Anne and Joe and reliving a "Roman holiday".
When Princess Anne arrived in Rome, the first thing she wanted to see was the Arena. Remember the movie where Joe rides a motorcycle to take Annie to this place that haunts her dreams?
Just as the Great Wall symbolizes ancient China, the 2,000-year-old arena has always been a landmark of Rome. A long time ago, it was prophesied: "As long as the hippodrome exists, Rome will not disappear; when the arena collapses, Rome will perish; rome will perish and the end of the world will come." "It can be seen that its position in the world at that time.
I don't know if the modern sports field is modeled after this oval arena, but the smoke of the Apennines has never subsided, and Italian football has fascinated a large number of girls.
It looks like Annie and Joe are standing here, in the stands on the third floor of the Arena. In the face of the bloody storms of the past, they did not laugh or speak.
Back here in the evening with brilliant lights.
The place where Anne cut her hair was near the Trevi Fountain, the Italian Trevi Fountain. Legend has it that when you make a wish at this fountain, turn your back on the fountain, and throw the coin in your hand into the water, the wish will come true.
An old Anne relived an old dream.
After inquiring for a long time, I finally found the shop where Annie cut her hair in the movie, which has now become an Italian leather goods store, and romance can not carry economic reality after all.
The Italian chestnuts near the Trevi Fountain were soft and crispy, as sweet as the warmth of Anne.
Performance art and creativity are everywhere on the streets, and perhaps that's how many of the rudiments of art styles began.
There are plenty of chicly decorated restaurants in the old town, order an Italian pizza under a tent or in the restaurant at noon, have a glass of red wine, watch the leisurely tourists walk through in the drizzle, and digest the movie storyline.
Rome has two metros, buy a rome pass, you can ride for free to reach most of the attractions, the conversion takes place here. The idle Romans painted a lot of nostalgic graffiti on the carriages, and every trip seemed to travel through time and space.
Among the many places of interest in the city of Rome, Piazza di Spagna is the most prosperous, stylish and fascinating place. The Spanish steps leading to the Three Holy Mountains are filled with nostalgic people. It's also often a natural showcase for Italian fashion, with supermodels from all over the world dressed in neon dresses as if Joe is holding Annie's hand into the sweet realm.
However, The shop where Anne bought flowers and ice cream is still the same as before, and people sitting on the steps often eat ice cream in their mouths, no matter where they look at, they must eat ice cream in their mouths, just like Princess Anne's style.
The ancient city of Rome is well preserved, the streets are narrow but not congested, and the bluestone shines brightly, illuminating the silhouette of Roman life in the city. The Romans said: Our city has not changed for 500 years.
The porch of the Pantheon is tall and majestic, but also gorgeous, representing the typical style of Roman architecture.
The Pantheon has been the cemetery of great men since the Renaissance, and in addition to Victor Emanuele II, the famous Italian artists Raphael and Anibal-Carrazzi are also buried.
Castel Sant'Angelo is located on a high ground on the left bank of the Tiber River, not far from vatican city. Castel Sant'Angelo was once the mausoleum of Roman emperors, and the Bridge of Sant'Angel in front of it, named after Bernini's Stone Carving of Angels. It is reported that the Vatican Has a secret passage leading to Castel Sant'Angelo for fleeing in time of war. Anne and the plainclothes who came to arrest her had a big fight, and they fell into the water and got wet on the shore, it must be this river.
Diagonally cross the left bank of the Tiber River in the city of Rome, and cross the Ponte d'Angel to the ground floor of the castle. In the movie, When Princess Anne dances with Joe on a yacht on the Tiber, Joe kisses her for the first time. Joe gave up the fee and reported the inside news of "The Princess Escape", and Joe understood that feelings cannot be betrayed.
Ascend to the observation deck on the top floor of the castle for panoramic views of the whole of Rome. Twilight clouds envelop the city, and a day of Roman holiday ends in a staggered film and reality.
The night again brings us into deep contemplation.
Roman Holiday
1, perhaps some of the 90s and 80s of the small friends do not understand or forget the black-and-white movie "Roman Holiday", the story synopsis is like this: a princess of a certain country "Annie" went to Italy, she quietly sneaked out of the palace, met with an American journalist "Joe", and stayed overnight. The next day, Joe found through the newspaper that the girl who stayed last night was quite similar to the princess, so he wanted to take this opportunity to send an exclusive message and make a steady profit, so he took Annie around, and during the accidents. A day passed, Anne finally returned to the palace, the two of them snuggled up to say goodbye, only to find that they had already loved each other. Joe then gave up the fee and the inside story of the "princess escape". At the final press conference, the two said puns to show goodbye, and the photos secretly taken by those friends became their best souvenirs.

2, transportation: Although Rome's public transportation is relatively congested and old, but some of the main attractions have a subway to reach, in the train station and other major stations to do a Rome pass (Rome pass), 34 euros on the 2nd, 40 euros on the 3rd, the subway and bus can be used, including the Colosseum tickets.
3, catering: eating Western pizza every day is very sad for me, fortunately, there are many Chinese in Rome. There are many Chinese restaurants near the railway station, most of which are opened by Wenzhou people and have authentic Chinese food. A restaurant called Volkswagen is Wenzhou Shuixinren, who has been operating in Rome for 20 years, and the taste of Wenzhou is more authentic than other cities in China, and I am tearful.
4. Accommodation: Generally, there are more bookings on "Booking Network". I booked an apartment near the train station, b&b, more than 700 yuan inclusive breakfast, wifi, travel with subway. However, Rome has a large immigrant population, and the security is not very good, especially the thieves, and travel needs to pay attention to safety.
