Thanks for the bathroom tip. Always appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
Washroom info is always appreciated! Thanks Elyssa. Hopefully will get to see the replica of Constantine on my next trip to Rome 😀
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
what great scholarship on your part. I took Professor Kleiner's course on the history of ancient Rome. It was listed by Yale University as a free on line course. It was very worthwhile and helped me to understand and appreciate what I was seeing in Rome
Thank you so much! I appreciate your recognizing what a great scholar Dr. Kleiner was. I am so grateful to have taken her course online when she was alive and answered our questions. She is the one insisted on offering her course online for free, a radical, pioneering suggestion at the time. Thanks so much for watching and for your kind comments.
Saw it last week - so impressive! Hope it is indeed kept permanently.
Impressive, right? What an amazing job they did. I hope it stays, also. The materials are meant to withstand weather so let's keep our fingers crossed!
Thank You for yet another great video! 🙏💙🏛️
Thanks a lot for watching and for your kind comments!
We just returned from a week in Rome. There is so much to see. 1 week barely puts a dent in it. Your videos and website were a huge help. Thank you for all of the time and effort that you put into all of your guides. The city was great and I hope to come back some day to see more.
Thank you so much for your kind comments. I'm so glad you hear you enjoyed your visit to Rome and especially happy to know my content helped! Hope you will make it back - the Romans say, "A lifetime is not enough!"
This is on my list for Rome. Thank you for the information about the cafe. I was looking, but it seemed to be inside. Apparently, the views of the Forum from it are amazing.
I do love a freebie in Rome. 😊
Thanks! Yes, a lot of people don't realize you can access the café (and bathrooms, not to mention some spectacular views), without actually entering the museum.
Great.
Thamks for the video; I'll check it out if I'm ever in Rome again.
Thank you for another great info Elyssa!!
Thank you!
I followed many of your tips while in Rome and they were amazing, including recommendations on where to eat and some lesser known places to visit! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for letting me know you enjoy my videos and found them helpful! I'm so glad!
Another gem of a fine you have brought us Elyssa, your research as always is second to none, thank you. Buona Pasqua.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks again Peter and Buona Pasqua to you and your family!
Elyssa should setup a tour guide in Rome. She's more than qualified. Lots of tourists would be interested in what she has to offer in Rome as a tour guide.
That's very kind of you! I tried to become a guide but the process in Italy is utterly Byzantine and next to impossible. Do you know the last time they gave the exam for Rome tour guides? Neither do I. It's maddening. So I gave up. I enjoy sharing what I know here and on my websites, and hope people like you find it interesting and enjoyable! @@lilpenny1982
@@Romewise OK 👍 Understood
Great stuff as always. Thanks for sharing these to us. Cant wait to get back soon!!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you
do you do your own tours if we come to Rome again, love from vancouver canada :)
Thank you for asking but I am not a licensed tour guide so I cannot offer tours. But I appreciate your support!
Fascinating,thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Constantine is my favorite Roman emperor. I have a picture frame of him and Gengis Khan in my study room.
He is a favorite for a lot of people especially as he is the one who made Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire.

I’m in Rome and have been following your advice about restaurants. Unfortunately, I’m finding that ALL the restaurants have caught on to the tourist scam and unless you’re a local, you aren’t running into any just walking around. Oh for the good old days.
Oh dear I’m sorry to hear that. Can you please let me know what tourist scam you are encountering?
Thank you for all the amazing information. Me and my partner go on April 20th and are really struggling to find any tickets at all for the last couple of weeks. Apparently the co op culture site is no longer doing tickets as of April 8th and has a new website who only have tickets from may 1st. We are very confused.
I believe you are referring to the Colosseum. During the month of April, CoopCulture is still the vendor.
Regardless, this video will explain why you are having a hard time getting tickets:

And this video will also explain what you need to know about how to get tickets:

Hope that helps!
I've always wondered why Eastern Roman emperors such as Constantine, Justinian, Theodosius, etc. are not as popular as the Western Roman emperors such as Caesar, Augustus, Marcus Aurelius, etc. For example, people are aware of the 5 Roman Good Emperors (Nerva, Trajan ,Hadrian, Pius and Aurelius) which are all Western Roman emperors but there no studies of the 5 Roman Good Emperors from the East. Another example is people know about the bad emperors from the West such as Nero or Commodus but not from the East.
Why is this?
Well you raise an interesting people. I am not sure of the reason why people are more aware of and perhaps interested in some of the emperors of the Western Roman Empire. It may be because of the literature that was left by authors of the time such as Cassius Dio and Seutonius. It may be because there are some fantastic stories around them (sometimes exaggerated). Popular literature and filmmaking have also tended to focus more on these time periods and these emperors.
I don't know the answer but thank you for raising an interesting point. Perhaps others commenting here might have some ideas?
I just seen that two weeks ago .
What did you think?
9:50 I thought Constantine only converted on his death bed 🛏 🛏
Tradition says that Constantine converted to Christianity in 312 and one year later, with the Edict of Milan, made Christianity the official religion of the Western Roman Empire. He was baptised on his deathbed in 337 by the Arian bishop Eusebius of Nicomedia.
Visit the musuem... why does she keep mentioning the bathrooms? There's more to see than those
She mentions the bathrooms because she knows her audience appreciates knowing where they are.
Well I’m glad that Rome didn’t raise up a replica of Nero’s statue!!
😂😂😂 Good one!
