I just read that an artificial beach, similar to the one in Paris along the Seine, has been installed on the banks of the Tiber (Tevere) in Rome.

In my research, I came across a marvelous, comprehensive Adobe pdf file on the artistic, architectural and archaeological sites in Rome: http://tinyurl.com/a5gqj It's a large file, including maps, etc. so give it time to load.
