Roma antica

Viaggio nel tempo alla scoperta della città eterna

Through 10 itineraries, the author – a great expert in the history of art and territory – accompanies the reader on an unforgettable journey through the centuries.
The three initial walks have as their common thread the birth and growth of Rome up to the first phase of the empire in the oldest area, the “heart of the City”.
The next four itineraries follow the expansion of Rome in the Campus Martius and on the decentralized hills of the Aventine and Celian hills.
Finally, the last three take us outside the Aurelian walls, along the Via Appia Antica and the port centers of Ostia Antica and the imperial ports of Fiumicino.
Romans, Italian and foreign visitors, students, teachers, history and art enthusiasts will find in this guide to Ancient Rome an exceptional and very usable tool for discovering the countless surprises of what is defined – not surprisingly – “the most beautiful city in the world”. ”.

An original guide dedicated to Romans and tourists who really want to get to know the city.
