Walk to the entrance of Trajan's Markets where you'll meet your private guide. Get ready to step inside a remarkably preserved second-century complex that once served as the commercial center of the Roman Empire.

Next, explore the upper levels housing stone fragments, ancient statues, and detailed architectural models. Gain a deeper understanding of how the surrounding forums fit together during Rome's golden era.
