Imperial Fora Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

The square consists of a series of squares built by Trajan, Augustus, Caesar, Nerva and Vespasian between 42 BC and 112 AD. Trajan's Square Trajan's Square (Foridi Traiano) is the largest square unearthed. Apart from some Trajan's Columns, very little remains of this huge area from the 2nd century AD. Trajan's Column was built to commemorate Trajan's defeat of the Dacian (from today's Romania) and has a spiral relief on it. At the top of the column is the original golden statue of Trajan, which was lost in the Middle Ages, and now stands the statue of St. Peter. Trajan's Market (Mercatidi Traiano) is a huge semi-circular building with shops and offices on three floors. Square Ruins The Augustus Square (ForidiAugusto) and the Nerva Square (ForidiNerva) are located to the southeast of Trajan's Square and the surrounding market, and very few remains are left. The wall behind the Augustus Square is 30 meters high and is built to protect the square from the frequent local fires. On the other side of the square, there are three columns standing on the raised platform, they are the only remnants of the Foridi Cesare. Piazza Venezia There is a Vittoriano Memorial Hall made of white marble, called the "wedding cake" or "typewriter" by the Romans, to commemorate the unification of Italy and Emmanu who contributed to its unification Built by El II. The front of the memorial hall is a curved façade formed by 16 columns. There are two huge bronze statues on the memorial hall, the right one represents "thought" and the left one means "action". There is a flying lion statue created by Michelangelo on the steps leading to the memorial platform. The two sets of fountains below the steps also hold meanings - the Tyrrhenian Sea on the right and the Adriatic Sea on the left. The statue of the figure riding a horse in the middle of the steps is the soul of this memorial hall: Victor Emmanuel II.

It seems that it is already a ruin, but under the look, it makes people feel very calm and feel so peaceful. On one side is a busy city, on the other is a peaceful monument. Only these pigeons are the happiest.

Rome has countless plazas. The Royal Plaza is composed of a series of plazas, namely, Tulazhen, Augustus, Caesar, Nerva and Westphalia. Mussolini attempted to build the Royal Square Street between the Colosseum and Venice Square. Most of the buildings of the Royal Square were buried underground, and there were few remains of the Square.

This square is a monument in the center of Rome, next to the Piazza Venezia. In time order, it is the last Imperial Square in Rome, built by Apollo Dolos of Damascus. Next to the square is the famous column of Turajan. To commemorate the conquest of the Dakyas, the Roman emperor Tulajan ordered the construction of the square. The main building of the whole square was completed in 112 AD, and the Tulajan column was completed the following year. The construction of the entire complex required a huge amount of excavation.
