The Journey
Domus Aurea

Built after the Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD, this palatial complex was a revolutionary feat of engineering and artistry, boasting opulent decorations, extensive gardens, and even a rotating dome. Though much of its splendor is now hidden beneath later constructions, exploring the Domus Aurea offers a unique glimpse into the mind of a controversial emperor and the sheer scale of imperial ambition. Discover hidden frescoes, innovative architectural techniques, and the legacy of a palace that scandalized Rome and inspired generations to come. Note that it is located beneath the Colosseum.
Colosseum

Imagine the roar of the crowd as gladiators clashed in mortal combat, or the spectacle of public games and mock naval battles unfolding before your eyes. A guided tour will unveil the secrets of its construction, the ingenious engineering that allowed for such grand productions, and the social significance of this monument in Roman society.

It's a journey back in time to experience the drama and grandeur of the Roman Empire, not to be missed.
