Things to do & see Watching Roman history videos for Rome trip | Need help in booking

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am going to Rome next month for 3 days (18-21 June). Since I am from Asia, I don't know much about Roman history or recent even Italian history.

There is so much culture and history in Rome and I feel like an absolute idiot to not know and not develop interest during my teenage years.

I have started to watch Youtube videos to know about the Roman Empire and hopefully, by next month, I get enough knowledge to enjoy and understand the references while I tour.

I have booked Colosseum for now. What other attractions/museums/places would you suggest for a beginner like me? I am willing to spend time reading and learning about it.

Also, I am overwhelmed by all the advance bookings (in many other cities in Europe), so if you'd want to suggest any place/museum to be booked in advance (in Rome or Italy), I'd highly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance for understanding.
