Chiesa Santa Prassede Roma Not very far from the main railway station, it has got some excellently-preserved early 9th c. mosaics. The one thing that I well everyone who visits Rome for the first time and asks for advice not to miss is the church of S. Clemente, which is five minutes walk away from the Colosseum. The remains underneath the extant 12th c. basilica were excavated by the Jesuits in the 19th c., and you can go down beneath the church to see the remains of a 4th c. basilica beneath that one, and then down further underground beneath that to see what appears to be a 1st c. Roman house By goeasyin Travel > Europe > Italy > Romawith italyrometravel
