Weather
Rome is hot; there are no two ways about it. In general, the Spring and Autumn offer more bearable weather and fewer crowds, as well as allowing you to see the natural splendour of the city alongside the ancient monuments. However, visiting in summer has plenty of benefits: everything will be open for tourists, and the famous gelato will be even more of a life saver. Winter is much quieter and colder, but temperatures rarely get below zero, so it’s more than bearable as long as you pack wisely.
