Day trips from Rome
Because Rome is so rich in must-see tourist sights, many visitors neglect the surrounding area. Some guidebooks don't even give the Lazio region a chapter to itself, limiting their coverage to the capital city. It can't be denied that Rome does have masses to offer the tourist and you're unlikely to run out of things to do. But for visitors who are staying more than three days, visitors who are returning to the Eternal City for the second time (or third, or fourth) or for those who have simply had enough of the city, there are wonderful places easily reachable by car or public transport for a day trip or a weekend away.
Day trips from Rome make a refreshing break from the chaos, noise and pollution of the city. They are also refreshingly affordable, since trains in Italy are an economical means of transport, and the blue Cotral buses which serve the area are frequent and cheap.
Rome is surprisingly close to the sea and to the hills, and you don't have to travel far to appreciate completely diverse scenery. In the summer you can do what the Romans have been doing for millennia, and take a break in the nearby hills, where the air is noticeably cooler and fresher, and you may even find a breeze. Alternatively you can enjoy a day at the seaside, visiting one of the busy beaches near Rome, or finding more tranquil stretches of sand to the south.
Back in the 18th Century, English aristocrats on their Grand Tour spent considerable time in the smaller towns and countryside of Lazio. Many of the views and antiquities they admired have changed surprisingly little, and it's an atmospheric experience to follow in their footsteps around the cascades, temples and great houses of Tivoli, Frascati and the rest of Lazio.
Lazio is full of sites of enormous archaeological interest, including very fine Etruscan remains in the north of the region as well as later Roman ruins. Striking temples of varying scale can be seen at Terracina, Palestrina and Tivoli, where you may find yourself the only tourist marvelling at ancient columns and picturesque views. The absence of crowds is an appealing feature of Lazio's lesser-known hilltowns; although many tourists do visit Frascati (chiefly for the wine), and Tivoli (for the fountains of the Villa d'Este), you will find little tourism in other destinations - and even those towns are often surprisingly neglected.
