The most striking moment I had in Rome was when I visited the Basilica of St. Clement (San Clemente al Laterano). It's an 11th century basilica built on top of a 4th century basilica, which in turn was built on a 2nd century Roman temple of Mithras. So as you go down the catacombs you're actually entering another church, and then even lower there's an ancient Roman temple with an underground water stream and even an ancient road. It was like stepping in a time machine. And the frescos, my God... the frescos. I mean, I can be rather aloof but I was awestruck by the amount of history I saw with my own eyes.

The only nation that has a continued civilization for thousands of years is the 5000 year old Chinese civilization. Although the Roman civilization was destroyed and fractured, Italy is still vibrant and you have maintained a unique cultural identity. Egypt is doing well these days with historical preservations and incorporating the ancient Egyptian art into its new capital. The worst cultural preservation is probably in Iraq were thousands of years of multiple civilization got wiped out thanks to USA.

We then headed south and got wonderfully lost. Passing through a narrow alley we came out on a curved street with a semicircle of buildings. I immediately got that “Holy sh*t!
