Others Talking About Rome: Christmas, NYE And All That!
Merry Christmas! If you have any time at all to get lazy this season, you might enjoy reading these suggestions by our Twitter followers. We asked for it, and our Twitter followers sent us some of their excellent blogposts, articles, and photos to feature in our special Christmas edition of “Others Talking about Rome”. Enjoy!
Activities:
- Want to know how to celebrate New Year’s Eve in Rome? Head to Buzz in Rome’s ultimate coverage of Concerts, Events, Parties and Clubs for An Unforgettable New Year’s Eve in Rome, or Nile Guide’s Ringing in the New Year in Rome. Or visit a dance performance to celebrate the end of 2010.
- LazioExplorer informs us about the Rome shopping opportunities over Christmas and in the early new year, as well as specific outlet shopping for everyone who is after reasonably priced designer stuff.
- More information about Markets, Cakes and Toy Shops, and Nativities of Rome & Lazio from Buzz in Rome.
- Pilgrim travelers may be interested in Jospersworld’s post about visiting the Mamertine Prison.
Food:
- Did you believe Rome was shut down over Christmas? Think again. Information on which restaurants are open in Rome over Christmas is available from Katie Parla’s post Rome for the holidays.
- For more and specific suggestions, read Tavole Romane’s article 10 Restaurants to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Eve in Rome.
