Rome is like a dream come true. Whether you’ve never been or are dying to return, here’s a look at 10 Instagram accounts that depict the Eternal City it all its gloriousness.
Rome sweet Rome…there’s really no place like it. We can wax poetic about the Eternal City for as long as we want, but the fact remains: You really have to see Rome to believe Rome.
If you haven’t seen the Italian capital for yourself, you might have seen it in the movies or in editorial spreads, and you could understand how it would be hard to argue with anyone who ever called it the city of one’s dreams. If one dreamt up the most glorious city in the world, it would probably be Rome. If you’ve been, you most likely dream of returning and if you haven’t been, you probably dream of visiting.
So, without further ado, here–in no particular order–are 10 Instagram accounts that will give you a Rome fix.
1.@antoniofoni
This Roman transplant from Tuscany has a soft spot for street lamps. While all his photos of Rome are enough to conjure up some wanderlust, his nighttime illuminations are especially strong.
2. @dino_presciutti
Dino Presciutti fills his Instagram feed with thoughtful Roman cityscapes, mostly wide shots with a few close-ups thrown in for good measure. He places an emphasis on color, getting the saturation just right.

3. @liviahengel
Livia is an Italian-American travel writer and photographer living in Rome. Her pictures of the Eternal City–well of all of her travels, for that matter–are exquisite and showcase thoughtful attention to detail.
4. @luca_cent
Luca Cent’s postcard-worthy snaps show Rome’s calmer side. The stillness that he captures can practically transport you on the spot to a Zen-like state.
5. @elvireadele
Originally from Sicily, Elvire Puleio now lives in Rome. Her photos of her adopted city showcase a delicate, and softer side of Rome.
6. @disarmonico
Gianmarco’s Rome is gilded, candid and incredibly particular, capturing the sights and people of the Eternal City at their most authentic.
7.@fabio.pal
Fabio Palumbo’s Instagram feed gorgeously captures the rhythm and pace of Rome through beautiful candid shots, many of which feature the Romans going about their day.
8. @gtfoodandtravel
Since #foodporn is an integral part of any city-Rome in particular-, we’d be remiss if we didn’t include a food-centric Instagrammer. Gina Tringali shares photos of her eating adventures in the Eternal City and beyond that will make your mouth water even if you’re perusing her feed on a full stomach.
9. @ig_rome
Since Rome is just so gorgeous, we couldn’t resist including a collective account. This Instagram feed shares a selection of photos that were tagged #ig_rome. It’s nice because you get to see Rome from a variety of different perspectives.
10. @igersroma
Since Rome is Rome and there’s no such thing as Rome overkill in one’s Instagram feed, we couldn’t resist including one more collective for your viewing pleasure: the #IgersRoma community. Enjoy!
