🇮🇹 Rome in 2 Days: The Ultimate Itinerary!

📎 Day 1 📍 Morning 8:00 AM: Vatican Museums (arrive by 7:40 AM—lines are crazy!) Rent the €8 audio guide (or you’ll miss the stories!).Sneak a pic in the Sistine Chapel (shhh! 🤫). St. Peter’s Basilica: Free entry, but long queues at noon—go here before the museums to skip crowds! Pro tip: Buy holy water bottles & fill them inside—super meaningful! 💧 🍗 Lunch: Jollibee (best fried chicken in Rome, 8 mins from Vatican). 📍 Afternoon Pantheon (exterior only) → Sant'Ignazio Church (mirror selfie—€1 coin needed, 30+ min queue). Trevi Fountain: Fight the crowds for a pic! 💰 Spanish Steps: Roman Holiday vibes (but packed!). 🚫 Avoid: "Find Tea" bubble tea (€6 & terrible!). 📎 Day 2 📍 Colosseum + Ancient Rome 11:00 AM: Colosseum (no early entry! Late? Photoshop your ticket time—risky but worked for us 😅). Palatine Hill + Roman Forum: Massive ruins—wear comfy shoes! Bocca della Verità (Truth Mouth): Quick 5-min photo op! Colosseum photo spot: Metro exit = best angle. 📸 🍜 Food Recs: JiaMo Lab (closed Tuesdays—don’t miss it!). Zheng Ji Kitchen: "Ghost food" (weird but edible... opens early!). #Rome #ItalyTravel #TravelGuide #Vatican #Colosseum #RomanHoliday 🇮🇹✨
