Start your excursion from the SQUARE of ST. GIOVANNI DI LATERANO, explore it and go to watch the COLOSSEUM, where gladiators' fights and animals' persecution took place. Then go to the SQUARE of EMPERORS' FORUMS, that used to be religious and political centre. Nowadays you'll se just ruins. Pay attention to TRAJAN COLUMN erected to commemorate the emperor's victory over enemies. Then go to the central square of Rome - the VENICE SQUARE with the majestic white PALACE of VICTOR EMMANUIL II, the kings who united Italy. Have a walk along the embankment of the TIBER and admire the CASTLE of SAINT ANGEL. The ROMAN PANTHEON also deserves your attention due to its history and architecture.In Rome I was struck by three things: firstly I always felt as if I got into the school history textbook, secondly the quantity of Egyptian Columns in Rome is surprisingly high - 13; thirdly - the architectural beauty of Roman fountains - Trevi in baroque (see the picture), the Fountain of Four Rivers in Piazza Navona. Each statue on latter fountain embodies one of the greatest rivers - the Nile, the Danube, the Ganges and the Rio-de-la Plato.
