THE FORUM NO LONGER FREE!

Entry to the Forum is now part of a combined Colosseum/Palatine/Forum ticket. One ticket is good for entrance to all three sites and is valid for two days, so make sure you save your ticket! In addition, all traditional entrances to the Forum have been closed off, becoming only exits. To enter, head to the main entrance on Via dei Fori Imperiali (Largo Romolo e Remo), where it meets Via Cavour. At the Visitor’s Center there, you can buy tickets and rent audio guides, too. Admission is now €11 per person.

GLASS ELEVATOR NOW OPEN!

A new glass elevator will whisk you up to the tip-top terrace of the Vittoriano Monument for breathtaking panoramic views in all directions. Kids love looking for sights with the free telescopes; big reference maps help you identify major buildings; and you can get a close-up look at the Quadrigas, those horse-drawn chariots pulling winged victories.

Actually, the Quadriga on the right, or Via Fori Imperiali side, represents Unity, while that on the left, or Via dell’Ara Coeli side, represents Freedom. You will find the elevators on the Cafeteria terrace behind the monument. Admission is €7 per person. For the fastest way up, see page 42 in Rome With Kids and follow the directions to the “Secret Passage.”
