Overview

A journey to the places of power of Ancient Rome!
We will start from the Imperial Forums and the imposing Trajan's Column, the Roman masterpiece entirely sculpted with depictions of the conquest of Dacia by the Emperor Trajan! We will continue in the Forum of Trajan and in the Forum of Caesar, with the vestiges of the Temple of Venus Genetrix.
Once in the Roman Forum, the hub of business and politics, we will be able to admire the ruins of majestic temples (such as the Temple of Saturn and the altar where Julius Caesar's body was cremated), seeing how they looked at the time of the emperors thanks to representations graphics and reconstructions, and discover the mysteries and daily life of Vestal priestesses, senators and ordinary citizens.
