Montana, Billings - Report by Ashley. Today, we will give information about Unusual things to do in Rome ~ the cemetery of Non foreign Catholics .

day of series this week on unusual things to do in Rome things.
everybody visits the Colosseum, the Vatican, the Pantheon, the Trevi fountain and the square of Spain, when they go to Rome. While these sites are sensational, they are just the same tip of the iceberg - there is so much more to see and do in Rome!

that's why this week I'm looking at other things to do while you're in the eternal city, things that are a bit more rare.
so far this week we looked at the Teatro Marcello, the
Jewish Ghetto and the pyramid of Cestius. Today, we visit the cemetery for Non-Catholic foreign nationals, which is be at the base of the pyramid.
