Rome is a mixture of historical places and architectural styles from ancient classical Roman ruins to the high-spirited baroque churches and palaces, from the classic Renaissance to modern design. The fountains of Rome, the stairway of tthe Trinità dei Monti and the ancient ruins of the Forum are somehow all enhanced by the flow of people who swirl around at all hours of the day or night. The matchless beauty of Piazza Navona and the Pantheon have inspired armies of artists and musicians. It is a city where writers, musicians, and poets from all over the world have felt the need to stop and call it their home. The school is lodged in an old "Piemontese style" building in the historical centre of the city. It is only five minutes away from St. Peter's Cathedral and nearby stores and restaurants. It is very easy to reach the school as it is near the subway station (the Ottaviano station on the A line) and the main bus stops.
