Rome in August: a city that transforms<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Summer, for Italians, is vacation time! And the <\/span>month of August<\/b> is, par excellence, the period of the \u201cvilleggiatura\u201d, which in English means <\/span>holiday<\/b>. The term comes from <\/span>Renaissance Venice<\/b>, when nobles went to their \u201cpleasure villas\u201d outside the city to relax, just like the ancient Romans, who spent their \u201cotium\u201d in the villas of Campania. And nowadays, things haven’t changed; the Romans do exactly the same. They leave the hot, sun-baked city and take refuge by the sea or in the mountains, because holiday time is sacred. This is how <\/span>Rome in August<\/b>, with so few people, finds its own rest, offering the gift of its beauty to those who want to visit it.<\/span><\/p>\n
