Overview

The Markets are an archaeological complex of uniqueness in Rome, perhaps even worldwide. They represent an area that has experienced the evolution of the Eternal City from the imperial age to today. The markets were the strategic administrative centre of the Imperial Age with all the kind of shops, successively became a noble residence, a military fortress and a prestigious convent. Discover the different Forum Areas as Caesar’s Forum, Augustus’ Forum, Nerva’s Forum and the Templum Pacis. Admire the collections of ancient scultures and amphorae in the Fori Imperiali Museum. Observe a unique evidence of a 17th century cistern. Your experience will start with the Ancient Rome multimedia video showing the before and after effect of all the best sites of Rome. You can upgrade your basic entrance with: - Panoramic Elevator: experience a breathtaking view of the city from the top of the Altar of the Fatherland. - Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill: visit the area at your own pace.

Impressive Trajan ruins

Published on Feb, 2024

Great self guided experience which works well with a visit to the nearby Colosseum. Trajan’s column is very impressive and market interesting also

Hidden must visit gem!

Published on Oct, 2023

Struggled a bit to find the entrance but this is a hidden gem, walking through a ‘shopping centre’ that’s nearly 2000 years old is mind blowing, much less crowded than the well known sites, this is an absolute must!!

For a little pompeii vibe

Published on May, 2023

I have seen so much about Trajans market on TV and read about it. I have seen it at distance and always wanted to see it up close. When visiting Rome my wife and I walked by the museum entrance I decided to go in and my wife decided to go to Piazza Venezia to wait and watch people. The museum and archaeological area is well worth a visit. The museum itself is interesting and you get a good background for the imperial forums as well as for the "oldest shopping mall" itself. Parts of it almost gives a pompeii vibe where you do get a feel for what it may have looked like in ancient times. There are also bathrooms and vending machines in place.

Amazing and Amazingly quiet

Published on Apr, 2023

You must see the Trajan Market. On the way from Forum Romanum there are so many other things to see like the Forum Lilium and over the road the Fora di Augusto and the Trajan Forum itself. These are all brilliant but at the back of the Trajan Forum is the Trajan Market. Access is from the Largo Magnanapoli side. It is a truly extraordinary place. Basically it’s a Roman era shopping mall with an inside built around an atrium and outside there are shops on the street. It is so well preserved that it looks like the shops could still be there and it, more than anything I have seen in Rome gives the physical essence of what their streetscapes were like. It is a really interesting experience seeing day to day architecture rather than the monumental architecture of the different Forums. It’s very relatable and is if a couple of lads came around the corner in Togas they wouldn’t look out of place. A little gem!

A Must See

Published on Nov, 2022

A must see when you visit Rome. Here you are absolutely walking with the ghosts of the Roman empire. The market stalls and streets around them are in such pristine condition, that you really get the feel of what it was like 2000 years ago. Said to be perhaps the oldest "shopping mall" in the world, it is a great spot to visit.
