Paris, a beautiful 19th city, introduces one to amazing medieval architecture along with the sophistication of French style and the importance of French history which reaches back to Rome, the Eternal City. St. Peter’s Basilica and the astounding Vatican galleries are on Rome’s itinerary, of course, along with Ancient Rome, the Spanish steps area, Piazza Navona, the Museo de Roma, St. Mary of the Angels, Capitoline Museums–the list is endless.
