Sažetak | Prema drevnoj legendi, jedna od najmoćnijih sila i najvećih civilizacija, Rim sagrađen je na sedam brežuljaka, a njegov osnivač, kasnije i prvi kralj, bio je Romul. Kroz višetisućljetnu povijest grad se postepeno razvijao, ostavljajući i danas impresivne tragove bogate povijesti prisutne u svakom kutku grada. Njegova se autentičnost očituje kroz tri velike epohalne snage koje su objedinjene u gradu: grčka kultura, Rimsko carstvo i kršćanstvo. Šetnjom kroz „Vječni grad“ kojeg krase djela različitih arhitektonskih stilova, znamenitosti antičkog Rima, impozantni spomenici čine ga gradom s najvećim brojem povijesne, arheološke i arhitektonske baštine na svijetu. Među najveličanstvenijim rimskim bogatstvima našli su se Kolosej, Carski forumi, Kapitolij, Rimski forum, Villa Borghese, Panteon i Bazilika sv. Petra. Osim kulturnog turizma, turističku ponudu glavnoga grada Italije, koja se razlikuje od ponuda ostalih gradova na konkurentnom tržištu, nadopunjuje gastronomska ponuda sa segmentima eno turizma, održivog turizma, kongresnog turizma, brojne modne ulice kao dio shopping turizma te sportski turizam. Različite vrste turizma, povijesna baština, pogodan položaj, ponuda obogaćena manifestacijama i beskrajnim mogućnosti zabave, svrstavaju Rim među najposjećenije gradove Europe s rekordnim brojem ostvarenih turističkih dolazaka od oko 35 milijuna u 2023. godini. Rim je danas važno cestovno i željezničko čvorište s razvijenim industrijama poput metalne, prehrambene, kemijske, tekstilne i filmske. Kao dom najmanje države na svijetu, Vatikana, Rim je postao srcem vjere i središtem Katoličke crkve te njenog poglavara Pape. Vatikan kao jedno od najsvetijih mjesta koje povezuje vjersku i kulturno – povijesnu baštinu privlači mnoge vjernike svijeta koji sudjeluju u praksi hodočašća čime se ostvaruju pozitivni učinci na rast ekonomije. |
