Stay on populated streets, beware the many pick pockets and those scam artists from Africa who work in groups. I don’t know why Italy doesn’t lock them up and deport them, especially when they wait outside the house of God like devils to harm you

Lots to see all in close proximity. Lots of closed streets so great for walking or biking.
