We managed to go on a trip to Southern Italy only the third time: in one year the group did not get enough and had to replace the tour with another, the second time again the same story - the money was returned.
The Museum of the Doria Pamphilj family is located in the very center of Rome, not far from the square. Venice. Entrance - 12 euros. There are few visitors, our tourists almost no one goes, but in vain!
The four of us went on a survey of Italy. A cheap tour turned up - and forward. Although I have traveled this route more than once, you always find something new every time. Now about the tour: I stopped paying attention to the quality of hotels and meager breakfasts a long time ago, spent the night - and on the road. This time I got a rather unpleasant guide along the Onishchenko Marina route, although before that the PAK guides left the best impression (Yulya Zhizhko, Lesha Morozov).
The palace is famous for its wonderful art gallery, which is considered one of the best in Italy. There are paintings by Carravaggio, Raphael, Titian, Reni, Rubens, El Greco, Filippo Lippi and other great artists.

Do not pass by this small church at the crossroads of four fountains. Borromini himself considered it his best creation and constantly improved something until his death and wanted to be buried there, but his grave was in another Fiorentine church in Rome, next to his uncle Carlo Moderna.
The Church of San Pietro in Montorio also includes the Temple, as the Romans affectionately call it. This is a small temple of Bramante, around which there are always many excursions.
Decided to go to the gardens after reading Brown's book "Inferno" where one of the action takes place in the gardens. The gardens were not particularly impressive, I have seen better park ensembles.
Недавно вернулся из тура "Путь пилигриммов из Барселоны 15 дней" с 12 по 26 сентября. Программа тура прекрасная, хороший гид Люба, вопросов нет, но. За четыре дня до окончания тура нам гид в автобусе объявляет, что принимающая испанская сторона фирма Novovira не получила от DSBW оплату за четыре последних дня проживания, руководство ушло в глубокое подполье, и на звонки не отвечает, а все группа если не заплатит свои деньги то окажется на улице.
