Rome, like most cities, is largely defined by its population. The city is lively, at times even disorganised and chaotic. But whereas chaos can be unsettling in other places, in Rome it seems a natural and even enjoyable state of affairs. Rome has somehow managed to retain its charm, inviting visitors to let go and enjoy the fun.
