Prologue

This page and the other Rome photos page get a lot of hits these days, which is cool (thanks, Alta Vista!). Drop me a line and tell me what you think of the page, the site or the photos. Go here to get back to my Travels page and access my other Italy and Rome photos.

Rome


The Colosseum from the second level.




Another shot.




The interior of the restored/rebuilt Curia - the Senate building.




The Roman Forum looking west from the Curia.




The Temple of Saturn.




The Roman Forum looking north to the Capitoline Hill.



Ostia - Rome's Ancient Port City on the Coast Near the Tiber River Mouth


A small bathhouse floor.




Another section. The mosaics were still intact - amazing workmanship.




A portion of an original fresco in a house.




Can you guess what this is? It's a public latrine.




Here's the other side. Hike up your toga and have a seat!




A cafe ("thermopolium") near the city center. The street is through the large door way. The bar is in the center of the picture, with a large amphora at the edge. You can see the arched opening in the front and some storage cabinets behind it.



Back to La Dolce Vita.
