I took my teenage son, and he loved it! The guide compared Trajan’s Market to modern malls, and the views from the upper level were amazing.

Our guide Fiona expertly explained the architecture and how it functioned as an ancient shopping center. The views from the upper levels were stunning, and it was such a peaceful contrast to the busier sites in Rome. Highly recommend for anyone interested in ancient Roman history!
