How about more park and less of a selfie?
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do for tourists coming to Rome who are interested in art, architecture, churches, museums, and the history of ancient Rome. I am a tourist interested in all time periods of the history of Rome and Italy, and have been in Rome a few times but never more than five nights at a time. This time we will be there for two weeks in February and I am so grateful for your help. I only recently discovered you in my planning process a couple months ago and you have been enormously helpful! You have a delightful style, Very positive and insightful, and the passion that you have for sharing the wonders of Rome is palpable. Thank you thank you!
Thank you so much, Roberta! I am so grateful to you for taking the time to write such lovely comments. You really made my day! I hope you will have a wonderful visit this month and really get a lot out of your two-week trip. Enjoy!!!
Thank you, Elyssa!!! I'm going to be in Roma on February 28th and will definitely visit these sites.
Thanks so much! Glad you found it helpful. I hope you have a great visit to Rome this month!
I didn`t think it was possible but I think your videos are getting better.Outstanding.
What a lovely thing to say! I truly appreciate you!
Great.
Thank you!
I love your videos they so good. Your enthusiasm contagious. Thanks so much

Great video. This is definitely on my itinerary for my next trip. Thank you !!!.

You'll love it! Thanks for your comments and for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Nice and informative . Rome is amazing. Appreciate the upload from a new sub❤️🙏👍
Thanks for the sub! And thanks for your kind comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
This was fascinating,thank you.
Thanks so much! I'm really glad you found it interesting!
Elyssa gives the best insight to make the most of your trip Excellent video😊
You are always so kind! Thank you as always for all your support and lovely comments.
Once again Elyssa you have brought us another place in Rome that so many of us have never seen or heard of before. Presented and researched in your usual in depth way and so easy to understand, you really are the master when it comes to what to see and do in Rome. Thank you from all of us.
Peter, once again, you are so kind with your words of support and encouragement. it's because of people like you, who appreciate what I'm trying to do, that I love what I do so much! Thanks as always!
Dear Elyssa, What a treat. I have visited Rome since 1970 where I came with a back pack at the age of 15. I have never heard of this. So, thank you. A question from the hip. Do you do guided tours af Rome? I would hire you on the spot. Best wishes from Mikael from Denmark
Thanks so much for your kind comments! Well the site is new but the map sort of isn't although it's new that they have shown it this way. It is truly an amazing thing to visit, in the literal sense of the word! Thanks for asking if I give tours. I am not a tour guide so I don't give tours, but I appreciate the thought! Best wishes back to you from Rome!
Dear Elyssa, Thank you for your reply. I liked the way you explained for us normal humans to understand. Maybe we'll meet in the Forum and discuss the ruins. Best wishes, Mikael (from cold and dark Denmark)
I'm really grateful for your comments. I work hard to study the whole subject but then try to make my presentation of it not too long or involved...it is very easy to go down a rabbit hole when you are passionate about these subjects as I am! @@mikaelmelbye
Wonderful video ... thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for your videos. My friend and I are going in 2 weeks. I have watched other videos on what do, what to wear, etc. and your videos are so much more practical! I studied landscape architecture in college and history of Roma and the surrounding areas but have never been there. I wished I had found your videos in our initial stages of planning! ❤ Your videos are the best.
Wow what a lovely compliment - thank you so much! I am very happy you find my videos helpful and interesting. I hope you have a wonderful visit!
I wish the Museum of Roman Civilization in EUR with its incredible scale models of Ancient Rome would open again.
Yes, I know, all of my friends feel the same way! So many people in Rome wish that museum would reopen. They say it's being restored but I was recently at the newly opened Museums of Civilizations just next door (which is superb!), and I didn't see any signs of activity at the old Museum of Roman Civilization. We can only hope!
I must include this in my nest trip to Roma. Thank you very much for sharing this!
You'll love it! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks!
Thank you so much!! So nice of you!
This channel is fantastic! sei bravissima e molto chiara con le tue spiegazioni, grazie di apprezzare così tanto la nostra storia❤
Grazie infinite! Io adoro roma e la sua storia, la gente, la città. E un mio piacere condividere la bellezza di questa meravigliosa città! Grazie ancora per le belle parole.
Thank you so much. When I return to Rome some day (I hope soon), this will be on the top of my to do list.
Thanks for watching! I hope you'll get to visit it soon!
Awesome video. So well presented. Subscribed so I can see more of your content. Love Roma.
Welcome aboard! Thanks so much for your kind comments. I've got lots of content coming so I hope you'll enjoy it!
The story of the map is amazing. Thanks.
It really is! I hope you'll get to see it in person!
Very clear explanation, my compliments for your good Italian pronunciation!
Grazie tantissime!
As a Roman, this is so well explained and informative! Thank you :)
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your compliments. Sopratutto venendo da un romano! Ti ringrazio di cuore!
Great i want to see it!
I hope you enjoy it!
Love visiting Rome - such a great city to walk around in, and so much to see.
I love it too!
Fascinating.
Great. Thank You.
Thanks a lot for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
Wooow Elyssa! Ottimo lavoro ❤️
Grazieeeee!!! Questo complimento da voi è veramente molto gradito!!! Sono onorata!!! Grazie tantissime! A presto!
@@Romewise ❤️☺️
fascinating.
Wonderfully educational. Thank you Ma'am. Fantastic.
So glad you enjoyed it!
@@Romewise I watch your postings all the time. They are great. Thank you
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you! @@TWOCOWS1
Last March I stayed at an air bnb on via Gallia which is walking distance from the park. I walked through park and saw the artifacts. It’s amazing. Thank you for sharing
That's great! You would have seen it when it was still just a big jumble as they only opened this January. But it's still a cool area that allows you to walk towards the Colosseum and Palatine Hill without any crowds. I hope you'll get to visit it again now that the park is organized and open to the public!
@@Romewise Yes. It’s a great area to walk in. I recall seeing the church of San Gregorio.
I’ll be seeing more if Rome. I’m retiring to Italy this year.
Wonderful!! @@louisdangelo9375
Thank you very much for this fascinating tour.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your comments!
@@Romewise You're welcome. 😊 I'm right now diving into your videos on Larco Torre di Argentina/ Pompey's theatre, and trailing Iulius Caesar through Rome. Equally exciting. I do recommend them to others.
Thanks a lot, I truly appreciate it! I will have more coming about the Pantheon and Piazza Navona soon. You may be interested in this video about the Colosseum:

@@Romewise Thank you for the recommendations. I will check them out, and be looking forward to the new videos on Piazza Navona and Pantheon. I was just discussing those tow places with my relative with whom I last visited Rome 10 years ago. Warm regards from Denmark.
Thanks once again, and warm regards from Roma! @@larsrons7937
👍🇮🇹👍well done Elyssa 😁😁🤗🤗and for all .....
Welcome in Italy because Italy is an open-air museum....ciao..cya
Grazie mille!
👍😁👍🫶👍nice your job !!
Sono di Roma e purtroppo finora non ho mai visitato questo Parco Archeologico e nemmeno ne conoscevo l'esistenza. Sarebbe utile ogni tanto avere video del genere anche in lingua italiana, per favore.
Buongiorno Carmen. Grazie per il feedback e soprattutto per aver trovato il tempo per visitare il mio canale. Tra breve tutti i contenuti dei miei nuovi video saranno fruibili anche in lingua Italiana ( e le prometto che comincerò proprio con la FORMA URBIS) in collaborazione con professionisti e studiosi della materia. Per la parte interattiva, darò voce ai video ed ai contenuti grazie al contributo di mio marito Alessandro, romano-de- Roma- anche lui appassionato di archeologia e studioso di storia contemporanea. Nel frattempo non esiti a contattarmi qualora abbia delle domande e soprattutto continui a seguirci su CZcams!! Grazie ancora Elyssa
Thanks. I will be in Rome on the 27th . How is rhe crowd in Romw now? Super busy?... So i get an idea doe my busy pack scheduled I made
Rome can be "quieter" in early winter but the more the season gets closer to spring, the busier it gets. I was at the Vatican museums on Monday and it was wall to wall people. The Vatican and Colosseum are often crowded year-round, but definitely Rome is busier in February than it used to be.

Have a great trip!
If the marble map was made in the 3rd century and the Noli map was made in the 18th century, and they mostly match up, means that the layout of Rome didn't change much in 14 centuries.
In some ways, yes, that is true. It's amazing, isn't it?
Quite a jigsaw puzzle.
That's definitely one way to put it! :)
THE MAP MAY HAVE BEEN USED AS A FORM OF TAX COLLECTION INFORMATION, AND CENCUS TABULATION
Yes, that's true, it was one theory for its use. But most scholars agree there were likely cadastral maps on papyrus for this purpose, and they suggest that this marble map was purely decorative, as it was too big and too high up off the ground to see clearly.
Paris could never compare to Rome
Velarium.
Yes, I know, thanks. I realized it after I'd published the video. Slip of the tongue!
The problem with this video is that she is in almost every shot. We need to see less of her and more of what she is talking about.
She thanks you for your constructive feedback.
