Where it is

Loading the map…

Straight-line distances: Roman Forum from the Campidoglio 298 m · Capitoline Museums 382 m · Colosseum from Largo Gaetana Agnesi 389 m. Not travel times.

Why Aura
Enter from the Palatine side to see the Forum from above first, then walk down the Via Sacra. There is little shade: go at opening or in the last two hours.
