About
The seat of Roman political life for a thousand years is now a walkable field of broken columns, triumphal arches and the low foundations of temples, with the Palatine Hill rising behind it where emperors actually lived. It rewards slow wandering with a map more than a rushed lap, the Temple of Saturn and the House of the Vestals are easy to miss without one. There is almost no shade, so a hat and water matter more here than at any other stop on the list.
