The hostel was closed to Colosseo so we just walked to there. Colosseo is one of the greatest work of Rome architecture!! I was interested to get in to see how it looked like but again there were many tourists lining up there so we just took some pics there and had a quick breakfast.
We then walked around to see this ancient city. Actually Rome is a modern and cosmopolitan city but on the other hand she has many ancient buildings that make Rome so lovely. No wonder why it is the 3rd most-visited tourist destination in Europe.
Rome isn't the city that I like most but it is the city I would like to suggest to go especially if you like to take pics!! Definately you can take a lot of nice pics here!!
Fontana di Trevi is another must-go-place in Rome!! A legend holds that it brings luck to throw coins into the fountain, using your right hand and tossing backward over your right shoulder. Trowing one coin supposedly means you will return to Rome; throwing two coins ensures that you will fall in love with a beautiful Roman; and three tossed coins means you will marry that lucky lady or gentleman!
We then had lunch in a bar, we ordered coffee, lasagne and risotto. Many people say that the Cappuccino in Rome is the best and that's why I ordered it!! I can't say it was the best coffee that I even had but it was really good. The Lasagne was average but I didn't like the risotto coz it wasn't hot enough and the taste wasn't so good.
After lunch we walked around Piazza di Spagna and shopped around as well coz there were many brand shops near by Piazza di Spagna. Shopping time again!! I bought some accessories from D&G and it was very cheap!! I like Dolce & Gabbana!! :D
We went back to hostel in the evening, put down our stuff and then went back to the restaurant where we had dinner yesterday. We went there again coz the food was good and also it was closed to our hostel. We were too tired to walk and look for other nice restaurant.
Tonight we had cream sauce spaghetti with clams and pizza. Pizza was still delicious but the spaghetti wasn't as good as I expected. It was a bit hard to chew but the sauce was quite good.

We didn't do many things at night in Rome, not becoz there was nothing to do, it's just we didn't dare to hang aroung too late at night. The area where our hostel located was a bit far away from the train station and it didn't look so safe to walk around there at night. So we just headed back to the hostel after dinner.
