Must-See Roman Forum - A Rome Delight

Filed Under (Destinations) by Leon Kammer on 06-09-2008

There is a very unique part of Roman history that you will want to visit between Palatine Hill and Capitoline Hill near Rome. The Forum Romanum or the Roman Forum, may be one of the most ambitious archaeological projects of all time. By way of background, long before the first century AD, this area known as the Roman Forum was the premier political and cultural hot bed for the Roman Empire.

It is hard to imagine that the original Roman Forum was under construction for 300 years but by the 7th century BC, it was central to everything important that happened in Roman culture. It finally reached a completed state under the reign of Julius Caesar’s son Octavian, in the early first Century AD.

Because the Roman Forum consisted of not one but a dozen temples, arches and other buildings, it earned the right to also be called by many “The Great Forum” or Forum Magnum. The location was originally marsh land that the designers drained and utilized to build an important cultural melting pot for social interaction, legal discussions, political discourse and religious activities for royalty and citizens of Rome alike.

After the infamous fall of the Roman Empire in the fifth century, the Roman Forum went into decay due to lack of upkeep. By the time the Middle Ages came along, farmers grazing their cattle on the site had little awareness of the significance of the site. It wasn’t until the Renaissance that historians discovered the Forum again. A project to restore and repair the Roman Forum was undertaken in the 18th century and that project is still active to this day.

Today if you did get to tour the restored parts of the Roman Forum, the greatness of those buildings would be evident in the vast assortment of buildings.

Archaeologists have lovingly rebuilt and repaved the streets, and removed the growth and debris that centuries of neglect have left there. The transformation is so profound that it is open to the public to tour even today. But if you plan a trip to see the Roman Forum, you will not be able to get to see it all in one day. But even if you can only allocate one morning to seeing the site, you will come away with a sense of awe at the glory of the Roman Empire that is evident in this restored site.

The concept of “thinking big” that was typical of Roman designers of public buildings is certainly on display in the Forum in the “Temple of Venus and Roma.” This vast temple which Emperor Hadrian designed and built is perched on a plateau with a perfect view of the Roman Colosseum.

Almost as amazing is the Temple of Concord. This temple is devoted to peace and upon its completion in the western quadrant of the Forum in 367 BC, it became a popular site for Roman citizens. At one time the Temple of Concord was rich with expensive statues adorned with gold and silver but even now it stands as a testimony to the power and prowess of the mighty Roman Empire.

There are dozens of other structures to explore in the Forum, including the Temples of Pollux, Saturn, Vepasian and Castor. When combined with the huge diversity of buildings, you can get a real feel for what the Roman architects and emperors wanted from this ambitious project. But the Forum is about so much more than just a collection of temples.

Many of the walkways are lined with arches, including the Arch of Septimus Severus and Titus. The Romans invented and perfected the arch, and no one has improved on that design for at least 1000 years.

Politicians of modern times still like to make speeches from The Rostra in the Roman Forum. If you take a moment on your visit to stand under the Rostra, you may feel time slip away and for a moment you are standing there in those ancient times. Another site not to miss is a shrine known as the Black Stone or the “Lapis Niger” because it is another example of the creative abilities of Roman architects. The Via Sacra shrine is also another example of their amazing abilities.

If you go to Rome and return having not seen the Roman Forum, your trip was incomplete. This amazing accomplishment is a striking example of the heights that man can reach when working together, and how quickly such genius can be lost if we are not careful.

Things To Do In Jersey City

Jersey City, New Jersey is a wonderful tourist attraction for those passing through or looking to stay. With almost a quarter million people running the streets on a daily basis, there is a lot to interact with and do in this hustling and bustling city.

Transportation is something travelers need to keep in mind when going to places they aren’t familiar with. Whether or not they get a rental car, bring their own, or even if they decide to take an RV- they’ll need wheels to get around. But if travelers are fine with public transportation, Jersey City won’t disappoint with its many bus routes, train routes, and airports.

The “sights” in Jersey City are plentiful. One of the biggest attractions is Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Both items are largely associated with New York, but they are indeed jointly shared between the two lands. The Statue of Liberty is just a short distance away from Jersey City, whereas it stands two miles away from the New York shores.

A tourist attraction that is soon to be dismantled is the Colgate Clock. The Colgate Clock has long been revered as the world’s largest clock, but Colgate has left Jersey City and only an abandoned lot remains around the Colgate Clock. Talks have been made to see if it can be moved, and plans will likely commence to move the clock to make room for other businesses and opportunities.

Shopping is a popular subject among females and children- and some men who don’t see the sport of shopping as too tiring and stressful. Shoppers who come to Jersey City will be very satisfied in knowing that Jersey City has ten different shopping districts. Each district has different options in stores, services, and offerings- making for a truly unique shopping experience.

There are also a few parks that will enable tourists to relax and take in the sights. Liberty State park, Leonard Gordon park, and Hudson River Waterfront Walkway each have their own distinct styles in relaxation and entertainment. Those who are familiar with the Statue of Liberty probably already know about Liberty State Park- which is situated near the landmark in question. All three are considered to be a must-see for any tourists in the area who might be passing through.

Final Thoughts

New Jersey itself is a great place to visit, but Jersey City should be on the front of the list of places to visit if a traveler is making their way through. Be sure to visit the parks, shopping districts, and the Statue of Liberty before leaving!

Camping Holidays in France Within Your Budget

When we think of a holiday in France, we often think of a fancy vacation walking up and down the streets of Paris. However, this is just one of the many types of France holiday vacations available. Camping is becoming a very popular pastime for couples and families in recent years. Camping is also a way that many are choosing to spend their France holiday vacation. If you’re planning on a camping holiday in France, the best time to go is towards the end of the summer. Not only are most of the summer tourists gone, but the rates usually begin to go down around this time of year. Not only will you have a great camping vacation holiday in France, but you’ll also save money in the process.

Preparing For Your Camping Holiday in France

Although a camping trip may sound like a cheap enough vacation, traveling to France and back will cost something.

What you’ll want to do is figure out your income as well as expenses and subtract your expenses from your income to see what’s left over. If you have a savings account, you will probably be withdrawing money from your savings. A good rule of thumb is to not use more than 30% of your savings for your vacation. After some good calculations, you’ll know how much money you have to spend on your France vacation, so you can begin planning.

Doing a search online for France lodging and airfare will help you to find the best and most affordable.

There are numerous animals that you can be hunting for, ducks, caribou, bears and the list could go on. This all depends on the season and the experience that you have as a hunter. Elk is one of the largest species of deer that is hunted for. Montana is one of the most popular places to hunt for elk.

Some people may say that hunting is a game of luck, while it may be that to a certain degree, hunting can also be about knowledge. If know you where to look, then you greatly increase the chances of finding game. Before you set out to hunt for elk in Montana, keep in mind a few tips that will make this a dream vacation.

Hunting isn’t all about luck. If you know where to look for game then chances are you will find it. So make sure that you know the area you will be hunting in by pre scouting it. If you have limited time check with the department in charge and they will be able to give you information.

Know what type of food and habitats elks look for at the time that you are going. If you can find their source of food and know where they will be staying then they can’t be far away. It’s also always a good idea to have someone with good knowledge on this with you, such as guide or hunting outfitter.

Over and above anything, don’t forget to purchase a hunting license. Without the proper license you won’t be able to hunt for anything. You can purchase a Montana hunting license online before going on your trip if you want to get ahead.

Perhaps you are hankering for a sun-n-sand vacation. You might think of Hawaii, but you might have the mistaken notion that it’s too crowded.

Consider Kauai, the least crowded of the major Hawaiian islands. Want to hear 10 reasons why?

Put your face in the water (wearing a mask or goggles) at any beach and watch the colorful fish. You don’t even need a snorkel.

2. The surf is high in many spots, but the island’s south side offers sheltered beaches, good for kids.

3. Adventurous folks will find zipline tours, helicopter tours, and plenty of opportunities to kayak to see amazing scenery.

4. You will see an amazing coast on Kauai’s northwest side. Hollywood directors have found it and used it in movies like King Kong and Raiders of the Lost Ark. You can see it from a boat or helicopter, or even from a kayak if you relish an athletic challenge.

5. Your frequent-flyer miles may be able to get you there.

6. Since it is a U.S. destination, U.S. liability laws apply for diving outfitters. So you are more likely to have a safe diving experience with safe equipment than in non-U.S. destinations.

7. Kauai is the least crowded of the major Hawaiian islands. This is great depending on whether you like or hate crowds.

8. You get to see monk seals and sea turtles at the beaches. Don’t feed or touch! They are endangered.
