À propos de cette activité

Uncover the layers of Rome, a city reborn through centuries of ambition and art. Begin at the Pantheon, where imperial dreams met architectural genius, and discover how this ancient temple outlived the empire. Wander through Piazza Navona, where chariot races gave way to Baroque spectacle, and rival artists turned fountains into politics. Explore hidden streets and Palazzo Madama, where powerful families and popes reshaped the medieval city. Follow the popes' escape route to St. Peter's Square, where Baroque grandeur awaits. By the end of your journey, you'll grasp how Rome reinvented itself, transforming from imperial powerhouse to the epicenter of Catholic Europe, its legacy woven from intrigue, art, and resilience.
