My Hotel Rome Blog

I decided to go buy some dvds abd the perfect place for me to go get them was Via del Corso. I first went to Ricordi Media in Termini station which is located very near Nice Hotel Rome. They had what I was looking for but I decided to try in Via del Corso too.

So I hopped on the metro and took the A line to Piazza del Popolo. There just happened to be a display by the police as it was their 155th year anniversary. What caught my eye immediately was the police cars on display and one in particular. However I wasn’t the only person to notice it. It was a favourite with everybody. I mean its not everyday you get to see a Lamborghini. This one was a patrol car and they use it for the highway. They were complaining that their Volvos were too old and too many cars were getting away from them. This car looked really good, apart from the paint job, which was in the plain police blue and white.

This got me thinking about sports cars and I remember seeing the Ferrari store which is in the same part of the city. The store is located in Via Tomacelli 147/152 and is open from 10:00 to 19:30 Monday to Saturday and from 11:00 till 19:30 on Sunday. The price range at this store is incredible. Items start off from around 4.50 euro up to 40.000 euro if you want a Ferrari engine of course.

The quality of everything as can be expected is exceptional, it should be for the amount you have tp pay for it. They have everything here from clothes to leisure items like Prancing Horse paper weights and sunglasses. All of which are beautifully designed and look really good. After I have saved up a bit more I think I will take a trip to the store and buy one or two very small and very cheap things, for now I will have to settle for my dvds.

So off to the store. I think that Ricordi Media is the cheapest when it comes to buying cd’s and pc games. They have everything under one roof. Even if you want to take your music experience a little further you can buy guitars drumbs or keyboards from here. They also have sheet music and guitar tabs available for both bass and rhythem guitars.

I was quite impressed with the many different types of genres and artists of music available at Ricordi. If you are a metal head, like to chill out and listen to good old Bob Marley or if you are a dedicated techno raving dance machine they have it all. You can also get your I Pods, Playsations and X-Boxes too. Its all really very convenient. So you don’t have to go back and forth all the time. You can get all your shopping done in one place and then spend the rest of the time looking around and sight-seeing.
