The Underground mystery at Livenza Hypgeum is another a-place-to-visit in Rome. It is behind a storefront of an oil-splatter city garage. It has a nondescript metal door from bustling Via Salaria. It is an underground mystery that Italian scholars haven’t really figured out yet. This was a subterranean place of worship where you can find colorful mosaics and elaborate frescoes. It is also known as the Livenza Hypgeum. It was also believed that this monument was the place of worship of the Baptai.

After rigorous hikes to beautiful streets, strolling in the park and visiting museums, shopping galore comes next. There are lots of malls, shopping areas, boutiques, and designer stores to choose from. First on that list is the Piazza di Spagna or the Spanish Steps. It is one of the richest streets to go shopping. Here you will find Italy’s best and top designer stores like Armani, Prada, Versace, Dolce, Gucci, Gabbana and other notable designers.
