Hi ALT PRO Mila,
Thanks for asking me about Italy since I was just there a few months ago.  My choice is the Eternal City of Rome as your extended destination from Oberammergau, Germany.  I've never been to see the Passion Play because it's held for every 10 years only.  I wonder since it's in German do they have a big screen translating the play in English?  I know, more or less, we know about the passion of Jesus Christ but I find it difficult to listen to languages I don't understand.  When I was in China to see the Peking Opera they had a screen with English translation.  But then, instead of watching the players, your eyes are diverted to the screen.
Here are some snapshots of La Dolce Roma:

I love looking at the umbrella pine trees



Fountain of Trevi



This reminds me of Chicago or vice versa

The Colosseum


The SkyGoddess told me they found by chance this Filipino restaurant while walking in Rome.
Yeah, I think spending 3 days in Rome is plenty time to see all the famous sites.
Happy traveling!
The Constant Traveler
