Europe has a long history of human development and is considered the birthplace of Western Civilization. Today, this cultural wealth is used to solidify the European Community and is exported to the rest of the world as one of the continent's greatest global assets.
1. Rome, Italy. It has been said that if you see just one city in Italy, perhaps even one city in Europe, make it Rome. With ancient treasures such as the Pantheon, Colosseum, and famed Trevi Fountain, there's almost more to see and do here than a single trip will allow.
The Pantheon of Rome is regarded as the oldest building in the world still in use (even if it is dedicated to a different deity these days). It is truly a national treasure of Italy - it is considered the best preserved ancient Roman monument and the most copied.
