This immersive experience takes you through 2,000 years of history, from a 12th-century basilica to a 4th-century church and finally to a 1st-century Roman home and pagan temple. It’s a must-see for history lovers, archaeology enthusiasts, and curious travelers looking for a truly unique side of Rome.
