Things to Do Around the Vittoriano

The Vittoriano stands in one of Rome's densest quadrants: within a 15-minute walking radius some of the city's most important sites are clustered together. Visitors to the monument can organise a full day without moving far, combining different histories and periods in a single itinerary.

Piazza Venezia is today Rome's archetypal traffic hub, but its current form is the result of demolitions and reconstructions that between the late nineteenth century and the 1930s erased centuries of history to make way for the new capital. The square tells the story of the Rome that was and the Rome that power sought to build.
