Today however, it is only the relics of this ancient city that survive, such as the ancient coliseum. Rome is a very lively city that has sophistication and a vibrant Italian atmosphere. This atmosphere can be felt from the grandeur of the Italian opera to the small, traditional Italian restaurants that serve authentic pasta dishes. The roads throughout the city are busy, and are lined with sports cars and Vespa scooters, which speed past.
