5 Paleo-Christian Churches: A Suggested Itinerary for the Jubilee Year, with a focus on Rome's oldest churches....and nearby tasty eateries!

Rome is a city of unparalleled history, where every cobblestone whispers tales of the past. As the Eternal City gears up for the 2025 Jubilee Year, it's already brimming with visitors. But amidst the grandeur of St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican, there lies another Rome—a quieter, more spiritual side that echoes the city's earliest Christian heritage. In a recent podcast interview, I had the pleasure of chatting with David Laskin, a renowned author and NYT travel journalist, about his suggested itinerary to explore five of Rome's oldest churches. These hidden gems offer a peaceful respite from the bustling crowds while immersing visitors in the city's rich Paleo-Christian history.
