Høydepunkter

Inkludert

Rute

1. Ostia was Rome's flourishing trade and business center, until the port was abandoned following the Barbarian invasions. The archaeological excavations undertaken at the beginning of the 14th century have brought the ancient city back to life. During your walk through the ruins your guide will provide enlightening insights into the cultural and social life of this historic settlement. Your visit to Ostia Antica (ancient Ostia) starts at Via delle Tombe, which leads you to the Porta Romana, one of the city's three gates. This is the beginning of the Decumanus Maximus, the main thoroughfare that crosses the city from north-east to south-west. You will then arrive at the Terme di Nettuno, where you can admire the beautiful black and white mosaics representing Neptune and Amphitrite, the theatre built by Agrippa, and the Forum which formed the center of the city. Here you will discover the main public buildings, Il Capitolium, the temple of Rome and Augustus, the Basilica and the large thermal baths. Near the Forum (square) you will also find the House of Diana and the Thermopolium, an ancient Roman bar with a marble counter and a fresco depicting the fruit and foodstuffs that were sold there. At the end of Via dei Dipinti, a museum displays some of the ancient sculptures unearthed at Ostia

About Roma

Roma pakker nesten tre tusen år med historie inn i én by du kan gå rundt i, fra Colosseum og Forum til barokke plasser og Vatikanets kunst.

Det antikke Roma er fortsatt synlig overalt. Colosseum, Forum Romanum og Palatinhøyden ligger sammen i hjertet av byen, Pantheon står ennå med sin åpne oculus, og rester av templer og akvedukter dukker opp mellom leilighetsbygningene. På den andre siden av Tiberen rommer Vatikanstaten Peterskirken, Vatikanmuseene og Michelangelos tak i Det sixtinske kapell.

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