Situated in Trajan’s Forum in Rome, this column stands at about 30 meters in height, with an additional eight-meter pedestal. Constructed from nineteen marble blocks, it boasts a weight of 1,110 tons. Intricate bas-reliefs narrate the tales of the Dacian wars. Innovative artistic methods, such as using a tree to delineate scenes, were employed. The panoramic views from the summit provide a breathtaking
Piazza Navona stands as one of Rome’s revered squares, situated in the Parione district. Its layout mirrors that of ancient stadiums in Rome, adhering to the design of the Stadium of Domitian, locally known as Campomarzio. With the capacity to host up to 20,000 spectators, it gained the title “Circo Agonístico” during Emperor Domitian’s reign (81-96 AD). Over time, its name transformed from “in agone” to “nagone” and eventually to “navone,” a term that intriguingly also conveys “large ship” in Italian.
The Pantheon, situated in Rome, Italy, was originally commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the rule of Emperor Augustus (27 BC–14 AD) and later reconstructed by Hadrian around 126 AD.
Characterized by its circular layout, the Pantheon boasts a portico adorned with substantial Corinthian granite
Situated at the convergence of three thoroughfares, the fountain served as the terminus of the Acqua Vergine, one of Rome’s ancient aqueducts. In 19 BC, purportedly with the assistance of a virgin, Roman engineers discovered a reservoir of pristine water slightly beyond 22 kilometers from the city (depicted in a sculpture on the fountain today). This water, sourced from the smallest aqueduct in Rome, was directly conveyed to the baths of Marcus Agrippa, providing a vital service to the city for more than four centuries.
Dominating the square’s center is the renowned Fontana della Barcaccia, a masterpiece crafted during the early Baroque era by Pietro Bernini and his illustrious son, Gian Lorenzo Bernini.
To the right of the staircase stands the former abode of English poet John Keats, who resided and passed away there in 1821. Presently, it operates as a museum dedicated to his and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s memory, housing a collection of books and artifacts from the era of English Romanticism. On the opposite side is the esteemed Babington’s Tea Room, established in 1893.
