Your visit will continue on the Palatine hill, point of origin of everything, where on April 21st 753 BC. Romulus founded Rome and where then Augustus, the first Emperor, decided to reside, giving way to a series of imperial constructions which, by their size and grandeur, took their name from the hill on which they stood. Even today we use the term "Palace" to indicate the great buildings and symbolic places of political power.
