The colosseum is in the centre of the city of Rome. Its construction started in 72 AD under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus.

The Ancient Romans constructed these aqueducts to carry water over their entire empire. The combined length of all the aqueducts covering Rome are estimated to be 490 – 500 miles long.

The history of the Arch of Constantine lies in the struggle between different factions who both claimed control of the Roman Empire. The arch celebrates the Emperor Constantine’s military victory of Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312 AD.

The Mausoleum of Hadrian, usually known as the Castel Sant'Angelo, is a towering cylindrical building in Rome, Italy. It was initially commissioned by the Roman Emperor Hadrian as a mausoleum for himself and his family. The building was later used by the popes as a fortress and castle, and is now a museum.

Rome is a city famous for its numerous fountains, built in all different styles, from Classical and Medieval. The Trevi Fountain is a fountain in the Trevi rione in Rome, Italy. Standing 26 metres high and 20 metres wide, it is the largest Baroque fountain in the city and one of the most famous fountains in the world.
