Such a beautiful city -- I can't wait to visit someday. I am noticing a lot of graffiti on the buildings -- is that common in Rome? Or Italy in general?

Любимая Италия!! Любимый Рим !! Всегда хочется вернуться снова !!! Невозможно не любить вечный город !! Самый восхитительный , самый вдохновляющий, самый мечтательный !!!❤️
Finding your channel has been such a delight. I have also put my best friend onto it and we both adore it. Thank you for these amazing immersions in the places you visit. I wish you the very best
Found your channel yesterday with the Paris one and felt in-love, it feels so therapeutic and inspiring as someone residing from the far-east of the world. Judging from these two videos, Paris is grand and very clean while Rome is rustic, homey, and care-free. I appreciate that these videos were also taken at late afternoon/golden hour where the lighting is optimal for these videos. I would also point out that maybe you could improve the quality of the audio by incorporating a noise cancelling mic perhaps because it takes away the mood at times especially with the wind noise nevertheless excellent videos.
@@DiscoverHudsonValley That is not true. If you go to the other boroughs like the Bronx or Brooklyn you will find a lot of street with graffiti. This area of Rome is not in the main metropolitan area of the city. Trastevere is a suburb of Rome, you heard in the beginning of this video the history of it.
So SAD to see such beautiful historical buildings destroyed with graffiti. There is nothing beautiful about it. Those responsible should be caught , punishment - to clean every building with a group of same destroyers.
I can't express how beautiful this is Your upload is irresistible. Thanks for sharing and keep your love of nature, for that is the true way to understand the real life more and more.
Bellissimo ..posto magico .La vera Roma è li"..peccato x il degrado ...(trent'anni fa'.era molto meglio)..bruttissime tutte quelle scritte sui. Muri ....inciviltà assoluta ...vergogna
For a last Rome walk before winter comes, I suggest following the ancient walls. Not only the well known preserved segments but the whimsical/monumental short bits in little visited places that range from upscale homes to commercial zones. You may have to omit some long gaps, or could sneak a continuous drone overflight. There is a book or two on interesting wall features.
I love the evening walking tours. Seeing all the people on the sidewalks eating and drinking. I love Latin Europe for that. Be there all night, couple bottles of wine. Good friends, good food, good wine, what else do you need (well, you can't do that on the sidewalk ;-)
@A R Graffiti are one thing but what we see here are just vulgarity like 'Frocio', I do not think the soul of a city is increasing by that. But I agree with you, it seems there is no way in Italy to achieve anything by law.
@A R But it is too bad those Mayors cant see how it affects tourism. I would not visit here because of the amount of graffiti everywhere. I have seen simply gorgeous Italian towns without any graffiti. It's all about pride of place IMHO.
@A R I love the culture and history of Italy and hope to visit one day. I'm probably just a romantic but when I see old buildings tagged, I think of who built them and the families that lived there, and I cringe a bit. I had some same reaction when I saw graffiti at Sacre Coeur and the Eiffel Tower in Paris. And you are right, tourists aren't "owed" anything and American cities certainly have their share of graffiti and seldom the history when compared to someplace like Rome.
Hi Isaac, I have been to Rome in the mid 90's. Then the biggest problem was crossing the street without getting hit by a Mercedes roaring down the street. Had to be on the heel of a local to get across a,street safely. !
It`s so beautiful, but what makes me very angry are these taggers who ruin the facades of buildings and shops, a lack of respect. This idea that this is art is an aberration. It is a crime against property that should spend many years in prison to learn to respect history and private and public property.
We walked through Aix-en-Provence in the late evening and a man was walking with with a paint bucket and roller and painting over graffiti. I assume he was with the city government. Since every wall was essentially the same color, like this is, it worked well. I just found it interesting and a simple solution.
My one regret when we went to Rome 2 months ago was not being able to fully get into the neighborhood. We crossed on the Ponte Girbaldi Bridge and stayed on the main road. Everyone was so tired by the time we go there.
There are better looking towns on the beaten path outside Rome with clean streets and no grafitti on walls with less tourists to deal with and far more quieter. Those are the kind of places I'd like to visit.
I've been working on them and have several rough draft versions uploaded including the Acropolis walk, Athens day walk, Mykonos Day and Evening walks, and the Fira to Oia hike. I just need to make intros for each.
Trastevere was the first ethnic neighborhood in the Western world. The first Jewish immigrants arrived in Italy in the second century BC, as foreigners, they could not reside in Roman cities and in Rome itself. So they were allowed to live beyond the Tiber river (at the time this place was outside the city of Rome), where they built their houses. In the following centuries, other Jewish and Mid-Eastern immigrants arrived in Rome and Trastevere became a lively, characteristic and popular neighborhood. Actually, Trastevere has maintained its popular character from ancient times until today! Many famous modern Romans were born in this neighborhood: Alberto Sordi, Sergio Leone, Ennio Morricone.
Thank you for the nice video! I really like this part of Rome, based on the video, it looks very attractive. However, those graffitis all over the walls ..... They look so disappointing, unfortunately. : (( Except for the really nice, artistic ones.
Pretty place.... but which the graffiti manages to destroy. The authorities should be strict in this matter. It looks like the vandals get away with it.
Need 60fps! Videos o fthat sort, with a lot of movement just do not look good on 30 fps. Other channels like Still Wanderer do it in 60fps and it looks so much better.
@@ProWalks I see... thanks for your response...I will look for day walks then...because for me the lower fps totally takes away that feeling of being at the place.. I can't even read the signs for example cause they are all blurry..
Stayed in Trastevere last week. Couldn't get past all the graffiti and rubbish everywhere at first. You'd think being a popular place for tourists, the locals/authorities would take more care. Another thing, the Italians don't seem to like the British much, I tried my very best to be polite and courteous, seemed to annoy them more. Is it a cultural thing?
How about hefty fines into the thousands and the banning of possession and sale of spray cans in the city? Give the taggers a designated area to spray paint. The fact that the authorities allow this to happen to the most beautiful city in the world is a complete disgrace. They do not appreciate how lucky they are to have a city as remarkable as Rome is and it should be treated with the respect it deserves. Trastevere has the potential to be an amazing part of Rome but sadly deserves to be ignored by any visitor to Rome.
I always love your walking tours so thank you for sharing. Maybe its just me but the disrespect shown for the unique architecture and culture of Rome by this graffiti is sickening. It looks like someone vomited crayons and comics all over. It's hard to ignore and it is like going to an art museum and have someone smear magic marker all over a masterpiece. So much blatant disrespect. I honestly feel sorry for the people of Rome who put up with this nonsense and have allowed their magnificent heritage to be so blighted. I stopped watching this video as it just made me depressed.
I agree with you Patti …I had to switch it off….I live near London and it is the same there…but like Rome, not all the streets have got Graffiti…Rome has much beauty…sadly the tour took us down the Graffiti Trail
@@michaelgreenslade8306 The Tour took a walk. And showed what is there to see. Everything. He did not hide the blight. He was honest. And did not paint a fake picture. Romans are not little angels, surfing the clouds.
I was surprise to see all the graffiti, Mine here in Portland Or USA has been riddled by graffiti, especially during the pandemic. I like villages when I travel
Prowalk was honest and forthright in showing a seedier side of Rome. Gang infested with the scourge of graffiti. Which is tolerated by the businesses and residents there. Not everything is "mom and apple pie and spaghetti/gnocchi"...in Rome. He went on a walk. And showed whatever was there to see.
Is a guy walking around with a camera a completely alien concept there? What's with all the weird looks and grumpy stares as the camera man walks by? Almost everyone looks like they're in a bad mood. The loud argument was interesting though.
I don’t understand why, but Paris is more cinematographic than Rome. I found Rome very spiritual, indeed. For me, is culturally richer than Paris, as you could breathe the culture and history in a more profound way. It is incarnated everywhere and in every person. Paris is just Rome’s ungrateful kid. The only thing I did not like about Rome was: pizzas and junk food everywhere. I eventually found a very tasty restaurant in Trastevere: Meridionale. Best Italian ice creams (organic, infinitely savorous with unique essences) are made by “Fata Morgana”. That’s fun, as Fata Morgana is the name of a Celtic legendary figure, in France, Brittany. If you want a huge heart beat when visiting France, first go to Paris for the fatasm vs. reality shock, then head to Brittany (Tahiti like îles Saint-Nicholas, The Cornwall coast, Belle Île, Lorient‘s islands and beaches: île de Grâves/Port Louis, Le Pérello), Normandy (Deauville, Le Touquet), Arcachon, Biarritz, Cassis (if you saw Paris and did not see Cassis, you didn’t see anything! I was so grateful when discovering this gem!), Saint-Rémy de Provence, all the Riviera, Saint-Paul de Vente, Cannes and Le Suquet and île Marguerite’s prison of The Iron Mask+ secluded beach), Strasbourg and Alsace’s villages, Corsica (!!!!!), Saintes-Maries de la Mer/gypsy capital, Avignon (!!!), The chateaux de la Loire, and I forgot sooo many! France is impressively diverse and visiting it’s towns and villages is like traveling to another country. Brittany, Alsace, French and Spanish Pays Basques (Biarritz, Saint-Jean de Luz, Hendaye and it’s donkeys near the Runes, Cambo les Bains, San Sebastián, etc.), Corsica, are like other countries.
A week ago just completed my one-month tour of Italy (Tuscany, Rome, Naples, Sicily), but the level of dirt and degradation I've seen in this country I've never seen before in my life. What a shame. What uncivilized inhabitants (certainly not all)? How do the Italians manage to live in such conditions, and how no one rebels? It's useless to have such beautiful architecture and countryside if it's not cared for by the locals. Note that this is just a viewpoint of primary a school teacher from Canada.
@A R And? So everyone can come to your city and be allowed to destroy it? Is that right? These are beautiful historical buildings, private properties which meant to last for many thousands of years. Who would want to buy properties looking like these, knowing that if you renovate it it will get sprayed with gibberish letters . Where is the MAYOR???? And POLICE??
I loved the video. It looks like a great place to visit, except I don't like all that graffiti on the buildings. I think the police and those businesses should try to do something about it. It does cheapen the area. I would visit that area anyway.
Judging from the multitude of tables out in the evening, it seems that Trastevere feeds all of Rome. But the logistics of trucking all the food necessary to accommodate all those diners into all the restaurants along those narrow streets everyday must be a traffic nightmare. So, hmm, maybe that's why some people there get the impulse to smear all the walls with hideously juvenile graffiti - they're all going nuts trying to get to work?😋
The graffiti artists ARE walking around with ladders. No way you can reach that high to spray unless you are10 feet tall. The businesses/residents are complicit in this graffiti scourge. They want it. They Like it.
Looks a dump with so much graffiti on those beautiful buildings speaks volumes about the lack of respect they show now for their own city and culture as with everywhere now unfortunately it seems ……..sad times
Do they call Rome the Eternal City? Why? It should be the Eternal Ristorante. You are stumbling across one, every two feet. Bet Italian babies learn to walk crabwise/edgewise to navigate the sidewalks.
Was in Rome in 2012 and LOVED it. Was so beautiful! Loved walking all over. Would go back in a red hot minute if I could!
Definitely worth another trip. :)
If you could? May I ask if it was an expensive excursion? How long was your visit? Rick Steves says that May is the best month before it start getting hot!
@@stephenhowes8937 we were there in October. It was pricey, but we were paying for 4 people and two hotel rooms. Was totally worth every penny!!

Such a beautiful city -- I can't wait to visit someday. I am noticing a lot of graffiti on the buildings -- is that common in Rome? Or Italy in general?

Was there in December of 2018, and stayed over for four nights at Palazzo Costagutti on Piazza Mattei. My Dutch Godmother had fun.
Nothing like the Eternal City.
Walking at dusk and waking up to ride the Appian Way would be pure delight.

@A R And? So everyone can come to your city and be allowed to destroy it? Is that right? These are beautiful historical buildings, private properties which meant to last for many thousands of years. Who would want to buy properties looking like these, knowing that if you renovate it it will get sprayed with gibberish letters . Where is the MAYOR???? And POLICE??
I loved the video. It looks like a great place to visit, except I don't like all that graffiti on the buildings. I think the police and those businesses should try to do something about it. It does cheapen the area. I would visit that area anyway.
Please, don't add music at the end of your video. Thanks.
Why's that?
Is the Green Pass required to sit, eat and drink outside?
No, you do not need the green pass to eat outside...or in a covered area outside.
@@ProWalks super thx
Why would so many people graffiti, that is horrible! Such a beautiful place
Man.Had to stop watching at 14:51.What's the English translation of Trastevere,Graffititown?
Min 4 bad Bunny de fondo xd
Rome is beautiful and lively, but the graffiti problem is out of hand. They need to clean it up, and make fines for doing it stiff.
TikTok people destroying a beautiful city with disgusting graffiti.
I really wanted to see the fight
if i live there ill get a water blast to clean all the grafity
Judging from the multitude of tables out in the evening, it seems that Trastevere feeds all of Rome. But the logistics of trucking all the food necessary to accommodate all those diners into all the restaurants along those narrow streets everyday must be a traffic nightmare. So, hmm, maybe that's why some people there get the impulse to smear all the walls with hideously juvenile graffiti - they're all going nuts trying to get to work?😋
The graffiti artists ARE walking around with ladders. No way you can reach that high to spray unless you are10 feet tall. The businesses/residents are complicit in this graffiti scourge. They want it. They Like it.
@Monti Gabbana Say, you an Eye-talian? No wonder. Even the raw Eye-talian sewer water would be good for YOU to drink
Rome from India
Trastevere is for the local…

In 1:58 A love story that did not succeed
Looks a dump with so much graffiti on those beautiful buildings speaks volumes about the lack of respect they show now for their own city and culture as with everywhere now unfortunately it seems ……..sad times
Am I the only who gets migraines from the camera moving that much?
My Tamil boy India super video
Too much graffiti,hate Them!
Trastevere, morte, istituzione o galera.
Do they call Rome the Eternal City? Why? It should be the Eternal Ristorante. You are stumbling across one, every two feet. Bet Italian babies learn to walk crabwise/edgewise to navigate the sidewalks.
What the fuck is your problem?
Parece que a alguno no le ha gustado mucho la pizza de Marcelino 😂
