Now, our golf cart gently takes us up the Aventine Hill, one of Rome's seven hills known for its peaceful and elegant atmosphere.

Bocca della Verita
"Just passing the Bocca della Verità. The cool, aged marble of that ancient drain cover absorbs the sounds of the modern city around it. You can almost imagine the countless hands that have been nervously placed within that gaping mouth over the centuries, each with their unspoken truth or lie."

Piazza del Campidoglio
Here we stand in the elegant Piazza del Campidoglio, Michelangelo's masterful design unfolding around us with its harmonious geometry and the striking bronze statue of Marcus Aurelius at its heart.

"Cruising along comfortably in our golf cart, and now we have a fantastic view of the Temple of Hercules Victor. Its circular design, dating back to the late 2nd century BC, is so unique compared to the other rectangular Roman ruins we've seen. This makes it the oldest surviving marble building in Rome, a testament to the early use of this precious material."
Tempio di Portuno (Pass By)
"As we cruise along, take a look at the Temple of Portunus. Its raised podium, the engaged columns along the sides, and the freestanding columns at the front are typical features of Roman temple design from its period."

"Passing by the Arch of Janus, dating back to the 4th century AD. Its exact purpose is still debated by historians, adding to its mysterious charm. Some believe it was related to commerce or served as a covered marketplace
Teatro di Marcello (Pass By)
"Take a look at the Theatre of Marcellus. You can still see the two surviving levels of its facade, which originally had three. The lower level featured Doric columns, and the upper Ionic, a typical Roman architectural style. Its construction was a significant project for Augustus, dedicated to his nephew Marcellus, highlighting the emperor's patronage of public works and his family's prominence."
Piazza Venezia
Now, if the Roman traffic allows, our golf cart will take us towards the vibrant Piazza Venezia. This central and bustling square is dominated by the impressive Vittoriano, also known as the Altare della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland), a monument dedicated to Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of a unified Italy. Take in the grandeur of its white marble architecture and the statues that adorn it.
