The last leg of Pasquale’s trip to Italy is Rome. We go to major sites in the historic center. We make a special trip to the Piazza del Quirinale, where the President lives and conducts business. Pasquale was stationed here briefly while serving in the Italian military.
This was our first time at the Mecenate Palace Hotel. It was nice, but the best part is its location directly across the street from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the four papal basilicas. On April 26th, Pope Francis’ funeral procession ended here. When we visited, Pope Francis was still hospitalized, but would pass away 1 month later.
We go through the Holy Door, one of four such doors opened for the Jubilee year. Pilgrims do so hoping to wipe away some of the bad crap we sometimes get into. Here’s hoping, anyway.
The column of peace in front of the basilica is the only surviving column of 8 from the Basilica of Maxentius. It is topped with a bronze statue of Mary and child.
Taverna del Seminario and Trattoria Luzzi are favorites when in Rome.
Our next stop, Las Vegas.
