Discover the awe-inspiring architectural marvel of the Pantheon, a nearly 2,000-year-old temple dedicated to the Roman gods. Marvel at its massive dome and learn about its history and significance.
Continuing on, we arrive at Largo di Torre Argentina, an archaeological area that houses the ruins of four ancient Roman temples. This site is also famous for being the place where Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC.
The route then proceeds to Piazza Mattei, a small square adorned with the splendid Turtle Fountain, created in the 16th century by Giacomo della Porta and later enriched with sculptures attributed to Bernini.
We enter the heart of the Jewish Ghetto by walking along Via del Portico d'Ottavia.
