Short Itinerary through Rome’s history
Posted on 22 February 2010
In the past, Rome was capital of an important republic and a great Empire. Today there are still vestiges of Conquering Rome, and for this reason we decided to show you an itinerary to find Rome’s historical traces. A good stay in Rome cannot miss a well organized visit around those places which made this city so eternal. Throughout the whole city you may find rests of a majestic past which sometimes are missed from the tourists due to the hurry or to the bad organization. This historical itinerary will guide you through the vestiges of Ancient Rome. An itinerary like this needs not more than 3 days to be completed and goes through important places which are testifying this city’s legendary past. To start you must visit Colle Palatino, the place where the “legend” began, from where Romolo, first King of Rome, was commanding the first nucleus of what will be the capital of an Empire. After this first historical taste, the visit must proceed by going to Fori Imperiali and Colosseo. The “Fori” were the real political and commercial city center because Rome’s future was decided over there. Nowadays they are very well preserved between the two Archi di Trionfo, Settimio Severo and Tito’s one. Near Fori there is Anfiteatro Flavio, or most known as the Colosseo, the place where Romans attended cruel games created by the Emperors. We suggest a visit to Basilica Emilia, you can see some paintings of the famous “Ratto delle Sabine”. As you might know, Romans were masters in creating aqueducts and were very interested in personal health and body treatments. For this reason we suggest you to visit “Terme di Caracalla” as a last visit. These “spa” were built around 217 and were considered as a real beauty farm where the rich citizens could go searching for some relax.
