Among the cities of Lazio, Rome stands out for the archaeological remains of an ancient capital along the Tiber River. The Roman Forum preserves the civic heart of imperial Rome, while the Colosseum, inaugurated in AD 80, recalls the scale of its public spectacles. The Pantheon is distinguished by its immense unreinforced concrete dome, a landmark of Roman engineering. Across the river, Trastevere retains a more intimate street pattern, and Vatican City, with St Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums, forms part of Rome’s urban fabric.
