Imperial Forums

Step back in time and explore the Imperial Forums, a complex of monumental public spaces constructed in Rome over a period of 150 years, between 46 BC and 113 AD. Built by emperors Julius Caesar, Augustus, Vespasian, Nerva, and Trajan, these forums served as centers of political power, commerce, and religious activity. Unlike the adjacent Roman Forum, the Imperial Forums were grander in scale and design, reflecting the emperors' ambition to leave their mark on the city. Wander through the ruins of temples, basilicas, and libraries, imagining the bustling life that once filled these spaces. Don't miss Trajan's Market, a multi-level complex that once housed shops and offices, offering a glimpse into the daily life of ancient Romans. The Imperial Forums offer a fascinating insight into the architectural prowess and imperial grandeur of ancient Rome, providing a captivating experience for history enthusiasts and curious travelers alike.
