Colosseum

The largest amphitheater in the ancient world, used for 500 years with its ingenious undergrounds and the thousand stories of its gladiators, is perhaps the best known monument in the world. The entrance ticket can also include a visit to the Palatine Hill, the “palace” of the emperors, and the Roman Forum, from where Rome ruled for 1000 years: an understatement to call it a square! Entry without queue.

Archeological Museums in Rome

Archaeological Museums

Archaeological museums enrich the knowledge of a site and promote understanding, because they show what can only be imagined elsewhere. From the large spaces of the Capitoline Museums and Castel Sant’Angelo, passing through the more modest ones of Palazzo Altemps and Palazzo Massimo, to the smaller ones collected within individual archaeological areas. There is something for everyone!
