ARCHAEOLOGICAL WALK: THE FORUMS AREA

Along Via dei Fori Imperiali, you’ll discover the greatest archaeological area of Rome.
The Arch of Constantine dating back to the Ist, IInd, IIIrd and IVth centuries. Close by  it stands a symbol of Rome: the Flavian Amphitheatre (Colosseum).And then basilicas, temples and triumphal memories flank us when in view of the Roman Forums which -in the old time –  represented the vibrant heart of the City. Finally stop at the feet of the best preserved monument of the  Imperial Rome: the Column of Trajan.


ROME’S FOUNTAINS AND SQUARES

In order to discover  the material foundations of this “Eternal City” – stones and water – we have to conquer the Baroque heart of Rome. The Trevi Fountain – immortalized in many movies such as “La Dolce Vita” and “Roman Holidays”- strikes every watcher with its impressive size as well as with its theatrical scenography.  The Colonna Square, dominated by an impressive triumphal column, was dedicated by the emperor Marcus Aurelius to himself, with the aim to celebrate military victories and the conquest of barbarian Lands. The Pantheon is a wonder of survival. Over 80% of the original temple represents the most appropriate synthesis of the Roman Civilization, based on the acquisition of foreign peculiar aspects. The glamour of the opulent Rome of the Popes is in Navona Square. We’ ll find there all possible keys to get in depth with the second great moment of Rome. It is magnified by the most elegant artistic gift of the XVIIth century: the Baroque style!

Site of the former Jewish Ghetto, this area is nowadays a lovely neighbourhood within the city’s historic center. Built on the northern bank of the Tiber river and home to the main Synagogue in the city, it is currently known as the Jewish Quarter. Here, we will learn about the history of one of the oldest Jewish communities in Europe, dating back to Roman times, and how it unfolded within the neighbourhood.
