Conclusion

The idea to write a Guide for Russian-speaking tourists in Rome is not new. In this small book we tried to connect the modern tourists with the ancient events and people that lived centuries ago. We wanted our Reader to reflect on the past, to admire the ingenious creations of ancient Masters and to connect past with our modern world. We also were trying to give a glance of every day life of ancient Rome through the experiences of imaginary characters. To make the reading more exciting and vivid - the personages of ancient Rome were brought in front of your eyes, you've heard them speak, you've heard the ding-dong of the streets and arenas and palaces of old and forever yound Rome.

We hope that each one of our Readers will embrace the idea of walking the Rome armed with as much information as you can carry in the arms (or backpacks to that matter)- which is exactly our Guide.

Enjoy it while vacationing in Rome.
