Route

1. We will start our tour by the Roman Forum. This is where in the morning of March 15, 44BC Caesar woke up after a restless night. He had nightmares, the ceiling of his house collapsing over him. Calpurnia, his wife, had nightmares too. Perhaps she is unsettled by rumors that someone wants Caesar dead.. As Caesar prepares for the day, Calpurnia begs him to stay home. She has a terrible feeling. Caesar begins to think she may be right. But then there is a knock at the door. It’s Brutus, he tells Caesar the senators are waiting for him, the agenda is full of important matters. Caesar looks at Brutus, one of the people he trusts most in his life, almost like a son. And he decides Brutus is right: he cannot miss the Senate that day. What he doesn’t know is that Brutus is also the organizer of the conspiracy and that the plan is already in motion. Ignoring Calpurnia’s worried gaze, Caesar steps outside and closes the door behind him. The last walk of Julius Caesar has just begun.

2. We will walk through Piazza Venezia and learn about the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II. It was in this area that Caesar, on his way to the Senate and surrounded by the crowd, was given a written message with a warning about the conspiracy he was walking to. But Caesar put that message in his pocket, planning to read it later..

About Rome

Rome legt bijna drieduizend jaar geschiedenis in één stad die je te voet beleeft, van Colosseum en Forum tot barokke pleinen en Vaticaanse kunst.

Het oude Rome ligt nog altijd open en bloot. Het Colosseum, het Forum Romanum en de Palatijn staan samen in het hart van de stad, het Pantheon prijkt nog steeds met zijn open oculus en tussen de woonblokken duiken brokstukken van tempels en aquaducten op. Aan de overkant van de Tiber herbergt Vaticaanstad de Sint-Pietersbasiliek, de Vaticaanse Musea en het plafond van Michelangelo's Sixtijnse Kapel.

Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
