At the Colosseum, explore the Arena, Underground Chambers, spectator boxes, and more.

  • The Pantheon
  • Roman Forum
  • St. Peter’s Basilica

The Roman Pantheon is said to be the oldest building in Rome. Its date of construction is still debated but is considered to be sometime in 27 BC. Its classic Corinthian columns and unique cylindrical structure has been well-maintained till today. The Pantheon was once used as a Roman Temple and then as a Catholic Church.
Of all the famous landmarks in Rome, the Colosseum is arguably the one that draws in the most visitors. A Roman icon, it is estimated that close to 8000 people visit the Colosseum every day and about 7 million a year. Step inside to discover the Colosseum Arena, Underground, audience spaces, Gate of Death, the outer ring, Arch of Constantine, and more.

  • Galleria Spada: If you're an art and history buff, Galleria Spada is a place you should have visited yesterday! This museum hosts a range of paintings by artists such as Caravaggio, Orazio, and Titian, among others.
  • Roman Catacombs: The Roman Catacombs are subterranean passageways that were used as a burial place for several centuries. One can see elaborate patterns and arrangements of skulls and bones of former Romans. Currently, there are more than sixty catacombs, five of which are open to the public on a Roman Catacombs tour.

Here are the best ways to cover Rome's most popular landmarks:
  • Get a city pass: If you're visiting for a limited time, getting a city pass not only lets you choose how many attractions you want to cover, but also ensures that you don't miss out on the places you should definitely be visiting. A city pass often includes travel and transport services, along with guided tours and/or audio guides to ensure that you have the best possible experience in Rome for the lowest price possible. For instance, a Vatican City pass gets you access to all the best attractions in the city with an audio guide for a great self-guided tour.
  • Combo tickets: Combos in Rome are the best way to get a fair deal. They ensure admission to more than one place, and at much lower prices. Visit various attractions in one ticket, such as Colosseum and Castel Sant' Angelo, Vatican Museum and Borghese Gallery, and more.
  • Choose parts of the city that you want to visit on a particular day. Once you choose a part of a city, choose which places you want to visit from these. This way, you ensure that you don't waste time moving from one place to another, and also see whatever you want to.
    For instance, if you choose to cover landmarks only on the east side of the Tiber river, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, the Vatican museums, and Galleria Spada, are easy visits.
There are several landmarks nestled besides each other. If you find yourself in Central Rome, you can visit the Pantheon and then head over to the Trevi Fountain or Castel Sant Angelo which are a 8 minute and 15 minute walk respectively. If you’re at the Colosseum, the Roman Baths of Caracalla is a 14 minute walk away.
Due to the immense popularity of Rome and its landmarks, you can expect large crowds at all times. Skip-the-line tickets, which you can buy online, will help you avoid long queues. With these tickets, you can bypass the waiting lines and get priority entry into famous landmarks. Enjoy skip-the-line access to the most popular landmarks in the city when you book Colosseum tickets, Vatican tickets, Sistine Chapel tickets, Borghese Gallery tickets, St. Peter's Basilica tickets, Leonardo da Vinci Museum tickets, and many more.
