When faced with a history that is as eventful as Rome’s, it is difficult to appraise it even into brick thick guides, still we decided to offer a series of en- compassing pocketbook volumes that any curious tourist may carry with them during their visit. The “Walks in Rome” series offers routes with- in the city’s great web of must-see sites and monu- ments. Each publication has chosen a guiding theme allowing you to follow a path through, to mention a few “Monumental Rome” (via dei Fori Imperiali and the Colosseum) or “The Dawning of Christian Rome” (The Basilicas of St. Johns in the Lateran and the Holy Cross in Jerusalem) or even en- joy the most earthly Rome “A virtual film set” (via Veneto and surroundings).

Temples of the gods are cast away from their august seats, and relegated to places never heard of before; gates of the city are swept away in a whirlwind till they fly before our eyes like one of Dante’s visions; diminutive ruins are magnified into the remains of great historical buildings; designs are produced of monuments which have never existed.’ Prof.

The Power of Images in the Age of Mussolini Abstract The year 1937 marked the bimillenary of the birth of Augustus. With characteristic pomp and vigor, Benito Mussolini undertook numerous initiatives keyed to the occasion, including the opening of the Mostra Augustea della Romanità , the restoration of the Ara Pacis , and the reconstruction of Piazza Augusto Imperatore. New excavation campaigns were inaugurated at Augustan sites throughout the peninsula, while the state issued a series of commemorative stamps and medallions focused on ancient Rome. In the same year, Mussolini inaugurated an impressive square named Forum Imperii, situated within the Foro Mussolini - known today as the Foro Italico, in celebration of the first anniversary of his Ethiopian conquest. The Forum Imperii's decorative program included large-scale black and white figural mosaics flanked by rows of marble blocks; each of these featured inscriptions boasting about key events in the regime's history. This work examines the iconography of the Forum Imperii's mosaic decorative program and situates these visual statements into a broader discourse that encompasses the panorama of images that circulated in abundance throughout Italy and its colonies.

  • Rome Tourist Information
    Rome As capital of the Roman Empire, the Papal States and Italy, Rome truly is the "Eternal City". One of the world's most elegant capitals the layers of history and the city's sheer excess of beauty can prove overwhelming to the unsuspecting visitor. This is a city best explored on foot, with every corner offering an overlooked treasure or unforgettable panorama. Roman columns soar up aimlessly next to medieval basilicas, the sound of water splashing in fountains fills the air in front of Renaissance palaces and exuberant Romans jostle through multi-coloured markets and winding cobbled streets. Breathe the air of the Caesars in the Roman forum, stroll through the menacing Colosseum, marvel at the splendours of the Vatican Palace - and you will wonder if this can be the capital of a modern industrial nation or whether you have stepped back into the pages of history. But around these relics of history Rome is still evolving. It's at the cutting edge of fashion and cuisine and is one of the most popular shopping destinations on Earth. So prepare to soak up history and modernity in equal measure in one of Europe's most fascinating cities. Sightseeing Rome is a work of art in itself and you'll never tire of wandering its streets and plazas, discovering new and ever greater architectural gems with every turn. Seeing the many treasures the city contains would take a lifetime, but there are several highlights that remain essential on a trip to the Eternal City. The Roma Archeologia Card costs EUR20 and is valid for 7-days.

  • Six Weeks in Rome. Part Two of Four: How to Do Rome in a Day
    Six Weeks in Rome. Part Two of Four: How to Do Rome in a Day By Manny Gonzalez, Plantation Bay Resort & Spa You can’t, of course. Do Rome in a day. But, most visitors to Rome being somewhat time-challenged, and also because I like you, here is some really valuable advice on what to spend time on in this city. Manny’s Lazy-Thinker’s Guide to Roman Architecture (98% Reliable!). The first thing to keep in mind is that central Rome (as you visit it today) is really four cities, built one on top of the other (or in between). Pay attention, and you will be able to seriously impress your friends with your architectural and historical expertise. First of course is Ancient Rome (500 BC to, say, 400 AD). There is not much of Ancient Rome left, but there is some. Does it have marble columns, some of them sideways on the ground? Is the roof missing? Then what you are looking at is probably Ancient Rome. Then there is Medieval Rome (1000 AD to about 1500 AD). 50% of what Italians call Rome’s Centro Storico (chen-tro STO-rih-ko, the part of interest to tourists) is Medieval. Is it occupied but looks like it will fall down any minute? Then it is probably medieval. Third is Baroque Rome (1600 AD to about 1700 AD), which is most of what we associate with the Catholic Church, and most of the open spaces. Is it a plaza or a fountain? Is it St. Peter’s Basilica? Then it probably dates from the Baroque period.

  • Mercati De Traianoi Trajan's Market Museo Dei Fori Imperiali
    Mercati de Traianoi Trajan’s Market Museo dei Fori Imperiali Via Quattro (4) Novembre 94, 00187 (Across from Hotel) 9:30 AM – 7:30 PM 13 € Trajan's Market was probably built in 100-110 AD by Apollodorus of Damascus, an architect who always followed Trajan in his adventures and to whom Trajan entrusted the planning of his Forum, and inaugurated in 113 AD. During the Middle Ages the complex was transformed by adding floor levels, still visible today, and defensive elements such as the Torre delle Milizie, the "militia tower" built in 1200. A convent, which was later built in this area, was demolished at the beginning of the twentieth century to restore Trajan's Markets to the city of Rome. Trajan's Market (Latin: Mercatus Traiani, Italian: Mercati di Traiano) is a large complex of ruins in the city of Rome, Italy, located on the Via dei Fori Imperiali, at the opposite end to the Colosseum. The surviving buildings and structures, built as an integral part of Trajan's Forum and nestled against the excavated flank of the Quirinal Hill, present a living model of life in the Roman capital and a glimpse at the restoration in the city, which reveals new treasures and insights about Ancient Roman architecture. Thought to be the world's oldest shopping mall, the arcades in Trajan's Market are now believed by many to be administrative offices for Emperor Trajan. The shops and apartments were built in a multi-level structure and it is still possible to visit several of the levels.

  • Neoliberal Rome - the Role of Tourism
    Article Neoliberal Rome - The Role of Tourism Roberta Gemmiti Department of Methods and Models for Economics, Territory and Finance, Sapienza University of Rome, 00161 Rome, Italy; [email protected] Received: 26 April 2019; Accepted: 18 Jun 2019; Published: 20 June 2019 Abstract: The primary objective of this paper is to analyze the main characteristics of recent tourism policies in Rome by describing the local modalities through which the neoliberal approach to urban strategies has been implemented. The first section highlights some general features of the city of Rome and its tourism, which are particularly useful for understanding the specificities of neoliberal tourism policies. The paper then proceeds to describe the most clearly defined neoliberal period of the city from 1993 to 2008, when the new Master Plan was drawn up to establish new policies and projects for tourism. The period that followed 2008 was marked by the gradual withdrawal of public action, which on the other hand has left ample freedom to the forces of tourism and globalization. Keywords: neoliberal policies; Rome; urban tourism; center-periphery; Airbnb 1.
