The Authentic Christmas in Rome……………………………..

Friday, 25 Sep, 2007 0

There are several authentic Christmas experiences, one of which is to celebrate Christmas in Bethlehem where the festival began. 

However millions of Roman Catholics and many non-Catholics who want to share a deeply spiritual experience of Christmas are drawn to the Midnight mass in the Vatican, pictured right.

The Catholic midnight mass is one of the world’s most special spiritual experiences with its haunting music, excited crowds from all parts of the world and an atmosphere of goodwill which so many people wish would last all year.

There is a special magic about Rome and the Vatican at Christmas, with the evenings are crisp and chilly, there is often the chance of snow.

The spirit of Christmas, more than the commercialised trappings of Christmas is the primary attraction for visitors to Rome at this time of the year.

The many historic sites of Rome including the Coliseum, now ranked as one of the Seven Wonders of the World are more easily accessible than in the crowded summer months.

Accommodation is cheaper than in summer and Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre has an extensive variety of winter specials for hotels in Rome, Florence and Venice.

For an authentic Christmas experience Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre offer an outstanding selection of authentic Christmas experiences in Rome and the Holy Land.
