About Rome Shopping
Going on vacation isn't always about spending your days at the museums and monuments. Part of the fun of touring a new city is also checking out the interesting shops and boutiques that a foreign country has to offer. When it comes to shopping, there's no better city to do a little retail therapy than Rome. During the Dolce Vita days, icons like Audrey Hepburn, Ava Gardner and other VIPS have often enjoyed pampering themselves by browsing the boutiques of the Eternal City.
