Roman Forum

Located between the Palatine and Capitoline Hills, the Roman Forum is an open-air forum that was once the commercial, political, social, and religious center of Ancient Rome. Throughout the imperial period, emperors such as Julius Caesar and Augustus expanded the Forum's territory to include temples, statues, monuments, the Senate building, and lower courts. Today, the Roman Forum is one of the most visited archaeological sites in the world and offers a fascinating insight into Roman civilization.
