Arch of Titus

Highlight • Monument

In front of the Flavian Amphitheater, the dedication carved in the attic of the Arch of Titus, the triumphal monument that was most likely built in his memory by his brother Domitian, the last emperor of the Flavian dynasty, celebrates his success in Galilee in the year 70 AD It ended with the destruction of Jerusalem.

Located at the top of the Via Sacra, inside the Roman Forum and a few steps from the Colosseum, one of the most visited tourist destinations in the world, the arch has a height of 15.40 meters, a width of 13.50 meters and a depth 4.75 meters. Clad in Pentelic marble and finely decorated, it has a single arch and is smaller and more modest than the Arch of Constantine and that of Septimius Severus, but its history is just as impressive.

Palatine

Highlight • Historical Site

The Palatine Hill is the most central of the seven hills of Rome and is one of the oldest areas of the city. It stands 50 meters above the Roman Forum, overlooking the Circus Maximus on one side and the other. It is the etymological origin of the word palazzo and its surnames in other languages (Italian palazzo, French palais, German Palast, etc.).

List of the seven hills of Rome:
- Aventine / Aventine
- Celio / Caeliano
- Capitoline / Capitoline
- Esquilino / Esquilino
- Palatine / Palatine Hill
- Quirinale / Quirinale
- Interior Ministry / Interior Ministry

Note that Monte Mario (the "highest" peak in Rome with 139 meters) and the Gianicolo (the second "highest" hill with 88 meters) are not part of the Seven Hills!

Domitian's Stadium (Palatine Stadium)

Highlight • Historical Site

The approximately 160 x 48-meter stadium enclosed the Flavian Palace to the east and was built around 92 AD. Surrounded by a two-story portico, it was accessible only to the emperor, his most important advisors, and his family. Due to its size, it was probably more of a garden than a hippodrome or stadium.

View of the Colosseum

Highlight • Historical Site

The Colosseum, which is also today the largest amphitheatre in the world, was designed by the Emperor Titus Flavius Vespasian, who chose the area between the Palatine, Esquiline and Caelian hills, previously occupied by the artificial pool of the Domus Aurea di Nerone, to build it. Its construction began in 70 AD and was completed in 80 AD under the reign of Titus, son of Vespasian.
