#rometrip
This trip just gets better! so much to do and to see in Rome. The equestrian statue is located between the colosseum and the trevi fountain. Enrico Chiaradia is the sculpture of this masterpiece, which represent a neo-classical building showing a beautiful bronze horse with Vittorio Emanuele 2.
It is really nice to climb to the top besides the steps, because it will take you to see an amazing view of Rome.
Both to climb and to see the monument is completely FREE.

One of the most romantic city in Italy, Rome ♥️ You will never run out of activities to do in Rome, as every part of it has history in it and the architecture is just, beautiful! Make sure you visit the most famous icon of this city, the Colosseum. Do not forget to also try some Italian yummy delicacies and drinks. Limoncello was my favorite! Oh as well, GELATO! #HalloTrip

Victor Emmanuel II Monument in Rome
I visited the majestic Victor Emmanuel II Monument in the heart of Rome. This grand and beautiful monument was truly a dazzling sight. This architectural masterpiece pays tribute to Italy's first unified king with its black sculptures, bronze horses, and plush building design, all of which exceeded my expectations. I toured the two lower levels and enjoyed the splendid view of Rome from the top of the monument. Gaining a comprehensive perspective of this ancient and enchanting city was an utterly amazing experience.
