This is what one gets through \u201cViaggio nei Fori,\u201d \u201cTrip to the forums.\u201d It is an interactive nighttime tour taking place in the warmer months of the Eternal City.<\/p>\n<p>Images showing what the forum looked like 2,000 years ago are displayed above the ruins of the Forum of Caesar. The spectator is immersed in the atmosphere of a bustling imperial Rome, thanks to commentary and music played through headphones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ALBERTO DI CICCIO<br \/>\n'Viaggio nei Fori'<\/strong><br \/>\n <em>\u201cOur tour is experienced especially, but not only, from an emotional perspective. It also offers everyone the possibility to understand the results of scientific studies.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Spectators see what the rectangular plaza erected by Julius Caesar was like. It was about the size of a soccer field.<\/p>\n<p>The Forum was dominated by the Temple of Venus Genetrix, from which Caesar was supposedly descended. The three remaining sides were lined with porticoes under which merchants would set up. At the center of the forum was supposed to be a majestic equestrian statue of the magnificent military man.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe best part is the atmosphere, the possibility to be completely immersed in this experience.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cMy favorite part was when the narrator said, \u2018In this moment, you are walking where the ancient Romans walked thousands of years ago.\u2019 That gave me chills. My favorite part was the one about Julius Caesar. I\u2019ve always liked Roman history.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The spectacle is in eight different languages. It lasts about 50 minutes and spectators can choose to see the Forum of Caesar or the Forum of Augustus.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI loved it. It\u2019s worth seeing. It\u2019s very lovely, beautiful.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI was struck because I saw some of the contrast with the ancient, which is so well preserved. On the other hand, with all the modern means, with the videos and montages, it is impressive. It is extraordinary work.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The show can be enjoyed only in the summer months because it is outdoors. The public\u2019s response is extraordinary: more than 100,000 people pass through each exhibition each year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 27th, 2019.
