Description
The entire route of the visit in the Forum Pass ticket is barrier-free and will cross part of the Forum of Trajan, pass under Via Dei Fori Imperiali through the cellars of the ancient dwellings of the Alessandrino neighbourhood and, after crossing the entire length of the Forum of Caesar, near the Forum of Nerva, reach the Curia to enter the Roman Forum.The Roman Forum was originally covered by a swamp. It was only in the late 7th century BCE that the valley was reclaimed and the Roman Forum began to take shape. It was destined to remain the centre of public life for over a millennium.During the Renaissance, the Palatine became the property of aristocratic families who built villas and planted vineyards and gardens on it. Today there still survives a part of the fascinating Horti Farnesiani, on the upper part of the hill, as well as the Loggia Stati-Mattei with its pictorial decorations.
