Rome through memory lane
Rome, the capital city of Italy, is said to have been founded in 753 BC. Within its magnificent structures lie chronicles of powerful history. Learn how art, economy, architecture, power, and public policy were dealt with in this past civilisation.
A tablet guide will help you explore the Mamertine Prison (also known as the Carcer Tullianum museum) and understand its gruesome past as a maximum security prison where enemies of Rome were incarcerated, usually when awaiting execution. The Colosseum is no less intimidating. This oval amphitheater, the largest in the world, has witnessed a lot of dramatic showdowns and barbaric bloodshed under Imperial Rome.
Ancient metropolitans
The Roman Forum was the site of important political, religious, social, and economic activities of the city - from elections, trials, gatherings, and trade. It now contains a museum where you can learn more about its history. The Forum, following the path of many urban developments of ancient Rome, fell into decay after the fall of the Roman Empire until it became pasture land. In the Middle Ages it was looted for its stone and marble. The area has been systematically excavated over the past 200 years, and what you will walk through are well-preserved ruins with a long story to tell.
South of the Forum and 51 meters above sea level stands Palatine Hill, the “first nucleus of the Roman Empire''. This plateau has an intricate terrain and scenic lookout, with ornamentally designed vegetation and layers of multistoried buildings. Visiting these monuments will ensure you leave the city with a deeper appreciation for the grit of ancient humans. Don’t miss out on them on your trip to Rome.
