Rome is the capital city of Italy and holds a unique place in history as the heart of the ancient Roman Empire. Its legendary origins are steeped in mythology, with the city traditionally founded in 753 BC according to Roman legend.
Originally a bustling center of political, religious, and commercial activity in ancient Rome, the Forum Romanum features a remarkable array of ancient structures, including temples, basilicas, and public squares. Some of its most renowned monuments include the Temple of Saturn, the Arch of Septimius Severus, and the Curia Julia, where the Roman Senate once convened. For centuries, the Forum Romanum served as the hub of Roman life, witnessing historic events, speeches, and processions. Its ruins offer a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient Rome and the significance of this historical center. Today, the Roman Forum stands as an open-air museum, allowing visitors to explore the remnants of its glorious past. It offers a captivating journey through time and a chance to connect with the city's ancient heritage.
Designed by the renowned Renaissance artist and architect Michelangelo in the 16th century, this square is a testament to his genius and his contribution to urban planning. At the center of the Piazza del Campidoglio stands a bronze equestrian statue of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, a striking symbol of ancient Rome. Surrounding the square are three elegant buildings: Palazzo Senatorio, the city hall; Palazzo dei Conservatori, a museum; and Palazzo Nuovo, another museum. These structures house an extensive collection of Roman art and historical artifacts. The geometric patterned pavement, known as the "cordonata," leads visitors up to the square, providing a dramatic approach to the Campidoglio. From this elevated position, the square offers breathtaking panoramic views of Rome, including the Roman Forum.
