A gem at night! Enjoyed wandering around the ruins of the old Roman shopping centre at night as there were few people there and it was very atmospheric. With good views of the 'wedding cake' and the ruins in that area.

The Markets of Trajan are an archaeological complex of uniqueness in Rome, perhaps even worldwide. They represent an area that has experienced the evolution of the city from the imperial age to today; an area that has been constantly recycled and transformed. The markets once the strategic administrative centre of the Imperial Forums, successively became a noble residence, a military fortress, a prestigious convent and a barracks... a continuous evolution.
