What to expect
The Forum and the Via Sacra, known as the Sacred Way, served as the vibrant center of Ancient Rome, encapsulating the essence of Roman life. This bustling marketplace was a hub of commerce and trade, where citizens engaged in daily transactions, attended political rallies, witnessed military parades, and participated in sacred ceremonies led by the esteemed Vestal Virgins. Here, the intertwining of social, economic, and religious activities created a dynamic atmosphere, highlighting the cultural richness and historical significance of the Eternal City.
At the Palatine Hill, the legendary birthplace of Rome, you'll stand where Romulus first laid the foundations of the city in 753 BC, a moment marked by the tragic fate of his brother Remus. As you immerse yourself in this historically rich setting, you'll be treated to breathtaking panoramic views of the Roman Forum, where ancient political and social life thrived. This picturesque vantage point enhances your understanding of Rome's origins and deepens your appreciation for the city's monumental legacy.
Domus Tiberiana, a significant archaeological site in Rome, has recently reopened to the public after being closed for 50 years due to extensive restoration work. As the first Imperial Palace in Rome, it now offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore its rich history through a newly designed exhibition path that enhances the experience of this ancient area. A visit to Domus Tiberiana allows you to step back in time to the grandeur of ancient Rome, immersing yourself in the remnants of its imperial past and the vibrant life that once flourished in the city center.
Santa Maria Antiqua, a 6th-century church, is a hidden gem that offers a captivating glimpse into early Christian culture through its remarkably preserved frescoes, providing a unique window into the art, faith, and traditions of a bygone era, and allowing visitors to step back in time and experience the essence of ancient Rome's spiritual heritage.
