Throughout its nearly 3,000 year long history Rome has become a web of architecture, art, and culture. Today, you'll explore the great statues of ancient Rome and an oft overlooked underground stadium with your own passionate local guide. As you enter the courtyard of Palazzo Altemps, imagine the centuries of glamour when the building functioned as a luxurious palace, and learn about the palace's history, its ties to famous popes, and so much more. In the courtyard, enjoy an amazing collection of statues from antiquity. Take in the grandeur of the Athlete at Rest, Statue of Demeter, and impressive original busts of emperors such as the famous and notorious Nero. <h3>The Ludovisi Collection</h3>Your expert guide will lead you in from the courtyard to start exploring the fantastic collection held inside the museum.During the 15th century, near what is now Tiburtina train station, there was a massive archaeological discovery of statues, artifacts and more from Ancient Rome. The works found included long forgotten masterpieces of ancient sculpture as well as the remains and possessions of emperors from the 3rd century A.D. Many of these statues ended up in the hands of the influential Roman family, the Ludovisi. During these centuries, the Italian aristocracy was obsessed with who patronized and collected the best art. From the Borghese family commissioning Caravaggio and Bernini, to the Barberini bees found across Roman buildings, art was the way to show power. Learn how the Ludovisi became a power player with their newfound collection. Among many pieces, your guide will lead you to the two most famous in the museum, the Suicidal Gaul and Ludovico Sarcophagus. The statue of the Suicidal Gaul is an important representation of the mindset of war to Romans. The statue portrays the story of a Gallic soldier who, in light of his family being forced into slavery, killed them all and then himself. It's an allegory that shines on many things, especially how even the Romans knew the strength of their brutality. In addition, your guide will show you more from Rome's wartime past, including the Ludovico Sarcophagus. Likely the tomb of a general or even emperor, the burial piece depicts a battle between the Romans and Goths during the tumultuous "Crisis of the Third Century." After passing through the great statues of antiquity who focus on war and the gods, the second portion of the tour involves the Romans other huge passion, games and racing. <h3>Underground Ruins of the Stadium of Domitian</h3>Below the modern, bustling square of Piazza Navona, discover how it looked in the first century A.D. Often thought of as Ancient Rome's third stadium behind the Colosseum and Circus Maximus, the Stadium of Domitian held track and field events surrounded by 20,000 cheering spectators, and some say that the origins of M.M.A. can be traced back to this very spot!Domitian opened the stadium in 86 A.D. after years of both tragedy and triumph in Rome. As games in the Colosseum commenced in 79 A.D., fires raged in the Campo Marzio district of the city and the infamous volcano destroyed Pompeii. Beyond the destruction to Roman cities, Domitian also lost his brother, the Emperor Titus, in 81 A.D. Against the odds, Domitian continued the building tradition of his family and brought another great stadium to the legacy of the Flavian Dynasty. Your guide will lead you through the stadium's ruins. See the expert architecture and incredible layers of stories built into Piazza Navona.At the end of your tour, your guide will say goodbye in Piazza Navona.
