Secret Rome (Editions Jonglez)

A church where animals are blessed, a magic door, sublime but little known places, cloisters and hidden gardens, astonishing optical illusions, bizarre miracles and legends, a barber for children, a 17th centrury pharmacy, surprising private collections, a Catholic mass said in ancient Aramaic, the language of Jesus Christ. Beyond the traditional tourist sites, Rome has managed to preserve many secret spots to the continuing surprise and delight of both residents and visitors who think they know all about the Eternal City... - Ancient Rome - Legends, miracles and esotericism - Bars and Restaurants - Boutiques - Little known palaces - Cloisters - Modern Art & Architecture - Children - Museums - Churches - Panoramas, views and optical illusions - Facades and inner courtyards - Gardens and nature - Sciences
