Reisgids Rome | Blue Guides

Beschrijving

Een van de beste, zo niet de beste, reisgids als het gaat om de culturele en historische aspecten van Rome. Elke bezienswaardigheid wordt diepgaand beschreven met schetsmatige kaarten en tekeningen. Weinig echt praktische informatie, behalve met betrekking tot de besproken onderdelen. Engels.

Fully updated eleventh edition of this classic and indispensable Blue Guide to Rome and the Vatican City: its history, monuments, art, architecture and way of life. New and exciting archaeological discoveries are perpetually being made in Rome. All these are covered in this new edition, which also visits the ancient Roman port city of Ostia and the imperial villa of Hadrian at Tivoli.

Alta Macadam is a long-standing and highly acclaimed author of Blue Guides to Italy. She is joined for this edition by series editor Annabel Barber and by contributors on art history, papal arcana, and ancient Roman survivals.

A select and well-chosen list of places to eat and stay is also included, along with practical tips on getting around the city.

Illustrations: Two-colour with photographs, diagrams, site plans and a section of full-colour maps.
