I think Rome is my favorite place that I've ever visited - there are lots of "second-favorites" but Rome is the best! When are you going?
Incredible museums, but also a lot of the most amazing paintings are actually in churches ... (I adore Caravaggio and a good many of his Roman paintings are still in the churches for which he painted them - including the glorious St. Matthew cycle in San Luigi dei Francesi!)
