How I visited the Roman Zoo

 One of the most popular things to do in Rome with kids is to visit the Roman Zoo. Located near the Forum, this zoo is a great place to see lions, tigers, monkeys, giraffes, zebras, wolves, and much more. The Rome Zoo also features a bear enclosure, complete with trees and rocks so you can observe the brown bears from afar. There is also a café where you can grab a coffee or a bite. You can even order a meal from the restaurant, which is rather expensive, overlooking the giraffe enclosure.\

The Rome Zoo is also home to the famous crocodile Mario, who once lived in a flat in the city. Originally bought as a 'pet' croc, he outgrew his small bath and now resides in the Rome Zoo's reptile house. It is fascinating to see the relationship between the city and wild animals - it is a complex one. But it's a great way to learn about the history of Rome's relationship with wildlife.

The Roman Zoo is one of the oldest zoos in Europe and opened its gates on January 5th, 1911. It was originally intended as a recreational facility but eventually turned into a park to protect endangered species and to give visitors a chance to observe animals from many different cultures. Today, the zoo is a great place to visit with kids or for a day trip from the city. And if you love photography, the zoo is a must-see on your list.

The Villa Borghese zoo in Rome offers extended hours on weekends and holidays. You can visit the zoo in two to three hours if you plan to see everything. It's free to visit the zoo with kids, but standard adult tickets cost EUR16. For kids under ten years, the entrance fee is only EUR13. If you're planning to visit the Villa Borghese, make sure you book an admission pass to the zoo.

There are many other things to do in Rome, besides seeing the main attractions. While the main sites are definitely a must, there's much more to the city than meets the eye. Don't miss a chance to visit the Roman Zoo. You'll never regret a day spent here! With a little bit of research, you can plan a day trip that will include all your favorite attractions. The Roman Zoo is an ideal activity for children.

To make your trip to the zoo a memorable one, you can also book a specialized tour to discover all the local wineries. With this unique Rome tour operator, you'll be able to visit two typical enoteche, taste some of Rome's famous wines, and enjoy the city's ambiance and cuisine.

Girona

We visited the city of Girona quite often, but, surprisingly, all our visits were connected with the local airport – one of Russian low-cost airlines brings tourists there. And almost all the time, we perceived Girona as a “neighborhood of Barcelona” and a kind of “old step” on the way to the big city. It was totally undeserved. Finally, we decided to correct this injustice. I have not seen such enthusiasm to take photos for a long time.   The history of the city begins before our era, because the Iberians who settled these places needed a fortified structure on the road to Gaul, and the Romans needed the same for wars with the Moors . It was the Romans who gave the name “Gerund” to the settlement, which later became Girona. The County of Girona (one of 14 original Catalan counties), which passed under the rule of various ruling dynasties (mainly France and Spain), was formed as a result of various feudal collisions in the Middle Ages.   In relatively recent history, Girona has been da

Nice

  Nice is among the best cities to go to in France and will surely make you glad you decided to spend your vacation there. It lies in the French Riviera region, in Southern France, bordered on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and on the other by the Mediterranean Sea. Nice is also quite a good place to base yourself during your visit for exploring the rich cultural history of this lovely region. In addition to being an attractive tourist destination, Nice has many attractions for travelers to check out. One of the best things about Nice is the diversity of its culture and climate. Because Nice is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, its weather is often hot and humid, giving Nice the distinction of being the best places to swim during the summer. Other than Nice beaches, there are other great places to enjoy Nice holidays, such as the Picasso Museum, which is well worth a visit, as is the Basilica de Nice. People who enjoy art will find much to appreciate in Nice and the surrounding region

Monaco

Monaco, ruled by Prince Albert II of the Grimaldi dynasty, is one of the few principalities that have survived to this day. The history of this principality is rooted in the depths of centuries, and dates back to the time of the Phoenicians (and this, just think of it, the 10th century BC!). The modern history of Monaco began when the colony of the Genoese Republic was founded in this area in 1215, in then Francesco Grimaldi became a local ruler in 1297 . So, the Grimaldi dynasty has been ruling in Monaco for more than 700 years, from 1297 to our days (of course, given the fact that during this impressive period there were wars and regime changes in Europe, as a result of which Monaco passed under the protectorate of various states).   The most significant personalities that influenced the fate of the principality during the 20th century include Aristotle Onassis, who significantly strengthened the Monaco economy with his investments, and Prince Rainier III, who developed the country’s
