Python Object-Oriented Python Advanced Objects Dream Vacation

I don't really know what to do and what the @classmethod means?

dream_vacation.py
class DreamVacation:
    def __init__(self, location, activities):
        self.location = location
        self.activities = activities
    # insert your code here
    @classmethod
    def rome(cls(), location = 'Rome', activities_list = ['visis the colosseum', 'Eat gelato']:
             return rome

It's been a while since I've used OOP in python and I'm pretty bad at explaining things, so I will redirect you to a helpful resource: https://realpython.com/instance-class-and-static-methods-demystified/

Working code below:

class DreamVacation:
    def __init__(self, location, activities):
        self.location = location
        self.activities = activities
    # insert your code here
    @classmethod
    def rome(cls):
        return cls('Rome', ['visit the Colosseum', 'Eat gelato'])
