The province of Rome is a matching frame for the many treasures of the capital, and the surrounding area has, more or less directly, experienced the influence of the history of the Eternal City.

A region with a great deal to offer: sea, nature, good food and villages rich in historyand art. The sea, the hills, lakes, rivers and vineyards: the surroundings of Rome offer a kaleidoscope of diversity and attractions for nature lovers.

Located in Lazio in central Italy and facing the Tyrrhenian Sea, the province of Rome enjoys a Mediterranean climate on the coast and a continental one further inland. The coast stretches from north to south, from the area including Fiumicino and the towns overlooking Lake Bracciano, the largest in the province, to the border with the province of Latina.

In the north-west there are the Tolfa and Sabatini Mountains, but also the nature reserves of Macchiagrande, Macchiatonda, Torre Flavia and Canale Monterano. In the Tiber Valley lie the Park of Valle del Treja and the nature reserves of Nazzano-Tevere-Farfa and of Mount Soratte.

The Tiburtino-Sublacense area, crossed by the river Aniene includes the regional parks of the Lucretili and Simbruini Mountains.

It is characterized by green olive groves. The territory which includes the Prenestina area and the Lepini Mountains is nestled between the Aniene Valley and the Albani Hills.

The volcanic lakes of Nemi and Albano characterize the Castelli Romani area, a holiday resort since ancient times, thanks to the mild climate and the gentle landscape.

Even before becoming the capital of the Italian Republic, Rome had always played a key role, in Italy as well as in Europe. Caput Mundi in Roman times and later home of the papacy and the capital of the Kingdom of Italy, at international level Rome has always been a major political, cultural and spiritual influence.

Highlights

Stadio Olimpico, one of the largest in Europe, with a capacity of over 70,000.

Association football is the most popular sport in Rome, as in the rest of the country. The city hosted the final games of the 1934 and 1990 FIFA World Cup. The latter took place in the Olympic Stadium, which is also the shared home stadium for local Serie A clubs S.S. Lazio, founded in 1900, and A.S. Roma, founded in 1927, whose rivalry in the Derby della Capitale has become a staple of Roman sports culture. Footballers who play for these teams and are also born in the city tend to become especially popular, as has been the case with players such as Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi (both for A.S. Roma), and Alessandro Nesta (for S.S. Lazio). Atletico Roma is a minor team that played in First Division until 2012; its home stadium was Stadio Flaminio.

Rome hosted the 1960 Summer Olympics, with great success, using many ancient sites such as the Villa Borghese and the Thermae of Caracalla as venues. For the Olympic Games many new structures were created, notably the new large Olympic Stadium (which was also enlarged and renewed to host qualification and the final match of the 1990 FIFA World Cup), the Villaggio Olimpico (Olympic Village, created to host the athletes and redeveloped after the games as a residential district), ecc. Rome made a bid to host the 2020 Summer Olympics but it was withdrawn before the deadline for applicant files
