Answer 1

Rome.... much more romantic

Answer 2

definately Rome. I stayed in Paris for 8 days and Rome for 2 weeks. By the end of my stay in Paris I was dying to go home, the food is good but everything in Paris is so overpriced and its quite a dirty city and the Parisians aren't exactly friendly. There are lots of attractions, I'm an artlover so I saw some fabulous things in Paris and good shopping. However I don't think I'll ever go back. Rome however I didn't want my time there to end. You go on a simple walk and see the most amazing sights. Fodd is fantastic, people are slightly mental but thats great. Ever since I went there (3 years ago now), I've been dying to go back! Rome all the way!!

Answer 3

Rome would be warmer (Paris can get very cold), both have a lot of tourist attractions, but I think that food wise you would be better in Rome (as you are a vegeterian).

Answer 4

Rome is definitely warmer than Paris - as for shopping and such, it's a tough choice - never been to Rome so can't really judge it - but Paris has plenty albeit quite expensive - especially bars and restaurants close to tourist attractions like the Eifel Tower and the Notre Dame - be prepared to pay (if you sit at a table) over 10 euro for a cappucino and a hot chocolate

Answer 5

Rome is warmer, yes, but :
Paris is called the city of love: bridges upon the Seine river are quite romantic, the Eiffel Tower is wonderful, Arc of Trionphe and Champs Elysées is a boulevard to visit but people are colder than Roman one.
Rome is called the eternel city : you'll find some ruins of the Roman Empire, the Vatican City, the Colosseum, some casas (homes) from the Renaissance time. Roman people, as all of us (latins) are a saucy.

For food: french food is excellent, a lot of wines, chesses and bread types, lot of salads as well.

Italians food is based on "pastas", much more than salads

Prices are the same in both cities

Conclusion : go to Rome, :)

Answer 6

ROME!
It will be warmer in Rome, there are a lot of tourist attractions and if you love shopping Italy is certainly better option because prices are lower than in Paris and there are a wide assortment of leather goods.
And Italy is the most beautiful country in the Europe!

Answer 7

Hmmm, weather probably Rome
tourist attractions pretty equal
food in general Paris but vegetarian food Rome (I've heard the only veg food in Paris is Indian)
prices dunno
shopping Paris

Answer 8

Rome should be slightly warmer, will cater for you better than French food and has almost as many tourist attractions. Italians like the Brits in general unlike the French

Answer 9

Warmer - Rome
Prices - both about the same
Tourist Attractions - Paris (Rome if into ruins)
Shopping - Paris
Food - Rome (but I love Italian food)

Answer 10

They are both great places to be but I would think Rome is warmer and it is also close to the coast.

Rome is more jacked up for tourism but a little more expensive.

Both cities have brilliant transport systems and so you don't need a car.

have a look at website 'wantedinrome' it also covers some information on Paris and other Euro cities.

Have a great hol.

Answer 11

Personally I would say Paris, from your choices.

Paris can be a range from cheap to expensive, while most places in Italy are fairly cheap..ish..

Rome would be warmer. Enough said, it's in Italy, a Mediteranean country.

Paris has a lot more tourist attractions, at least, that's what I've noticed. As well as a lot more famous attractions.

As far as food, vegetarian options are quite wide in Paris. Just visit the Boulevard du Montparnasse and you're garunteed to find a couple of places with a large choice! I've noticed a lot of things in Italy have different types of ham, or chicken with it.

So personally, I would choose Paris, but it's up to you to decide!
