Overview

Discover the ancient heart of Rome, capital of one of the most powerful empires in history. Immerse yourself in the story of this magnificent city and learn how its inhabitants lived more than 2,000 years ago.

Explore the Colosseum, where ancient Romans gathered in search of entertainment and where gladiators rose to fame. As one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, it is an essential stop for any traveler.

Continue your journey through the Roman Forum, the center of civic life in ancient Rome. This was the meeting point for citizens from across the empire, where trade, politics, justice, religion, and social life all came together.
