(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
EURPass-by Only
Walk to discover one of the most modern districts of Rome: the EUR. Crossing a magical stargate you will learn about the genesis of the 1942 Universal Exposition in Rome, one of the most ambitious projects of the fascist regime designed to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the March on Rome. "Olympics of Civilizations" was the theme of the exhibition and, just like a competition, the most brilliant architects of the time took part in the competitions for the future realization of the event. The great working excitement of the shipyards suffered a serious halt due to the outbreak of war and the immaculate buildings were abandoned and enclosed by barbed wire until the end of the war. What happened next? What was the evolution process from the E42 into EUR? Points of interest along the route exclusively external: - Office building - Palace of Italian Civilization - Palaces of the Exedras - Congress Palace - Museum of Roman Civilization - Guglielmo Marconi obelisk
