Then move to The Forum, the center of life in Ancient Rome. A huge collection of artefacts and buildings in the area give testament to the many important events that took place here. Learn about the Vestal Virgins, the celebrations, and religious sites that all marked The Forum. Finally, move uphill to the Palatine Hill, the most historical of Rome’s seven hills. Learn about the mythology that shrouds the hill of how two twin baby boys met a she-wolf on this spot, leading to the founding of Rome. Of course there is more to the story, but leave it to your trustworthy guide to tell the story once you’re atop the hill to get the full experience.
