The Roman Forum is the central area of ancient Rome where commerce and trade took place. This area also contains several temples dedicated to the Roman Gods.
The Roman Forum is flanked by the Capitoline Hill, Palatine Hill (did I mention that Rome was built on 7 hills) and the Colosseum. So our next stop after the behemoth amphitheater is the Roman Forum.
The entrance to the Roman Forum
The Arch of Titus-this is erected to commemorate the victory of the Romans against the Jews by capturing Jerusalem. This picture is taken going up Palatine Hill.
On the right is the three columns of what remains of the Temple of Vespasian. Behind it are the ruins of the Temple of Saturn.
The Arch of Septimius Severus-the first African born Roman Emperor. This photo is taken at the Capitoline Hill.
