Then, we  pass nearby some ancient remains, reaching the elegant ramp (Cordonada) designed  by Michelangelo in the 16th century. In a few minutes, we reach the top of the Capitoline  Hill, one of the seven historical hills of Rome and links the modern city with the ancient world. 

In front of us the Capitoline square  and the three buildings (Palazzo Senatorio, Palazzo dei Conservatori and Palazzo Nuovo). The Senatorial Palace is the Town Hall. The other two buildings facing each other house the “Musei Capitolini” one of the  world’s oldest public collection of sculpture. In the middle a perfect copy of the bronze equestrian statue of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. 

We reach the Capitoline terrace , from there we have an unvergettable view  of the Roman Forum looking across thousands of years of history from the Palatine Hill to the Colosseum .

Going down the slope, reaching the Imperial Forum Street where we do our breake for a coffee or “gelato”.
