Via Sacra

One of the main streets of Ancient Rome leads from the Capitoline Hill, through Roman Forum and to the Colosseum. In the era of the Roman Empire it was one of the most important streets of Rome because the Roman Triumphs (parade-like celebrations of victories of the military leaders) led down the Via Sacra and into the Roman Forum.

Today, the stroll down the Via Sacra will lead you through the most important sights of Rome from the period of the Roman Empire (e.g. the Arch of Titus or the Arch of Constantine). The walk is beautiful both by daylight and after the dusk when everything is beautifully lit up.
