Across the street and near the church of Santa Maria are this two temples and the beautiful fountain. Everything looks charming especially mixed with the old trees all around.

The Temple of Vesta

Close to the Temple of Fortunus is the small, round Temple of Hercules, also known as the Temple of Vesta, because it has so much resemblance to the temple with the same name of the Roman Forum.
