		<description><![CDATA[                                  
The legendary date of the foundation of Rome, 753 B.C., does not represent the earliest period of settlement on the site of Rome, where earlier Bronze Age traces have been found.

Ponte Flaminio
It should have been called &#8220;Ponte October 28&#8243; to celebrate the fascist glories. It was begun in 1938 following a project by architect Armando Brasini (close to it on the Via  Flaminia Vecchia there is also a villa planned and built by the same architect), the building was interrupted during the war: in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every day, hordes of travellers  gather around entrances at the Vatican, gazing in amusement at the brightly-clad  Swiss Guards. Ordinary tourists become paparazzi as camera flashes explode  like it&#8217;s Oscar night. But the attention, says one Swiss Guard, is  frustrating.      &#8220;People  take the photos for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Before noticing Monte Testaccio  (or its unusual composition), visitors to the neighborhood will notice  the Pyramid of Gaius Cestius, now forming part of the Aurelian walls.  It&#8217;s right across the busy piazza from the Piramide Metro stop; it&#8217;s  somewhat surprising to see such a monumental structure behind the speeding  cars [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Immediately behind the Pyramid,  at Via Caio Cestio, 6, are the grounds of what&#8217;s commonly known as  the Protestant cemetery. Strictly speaking, it&#8217;s the Cimetero Acattolico  per gli Stranieri, the non-Catholic cemetery for Foreigners: the Catholic  Church prohibited the burial of non-Catholics in Catholic cemeteries  in Rome, so from the [...]]]></description>
