My 37 Photographs Portraying Historical Rome In Modern Life
In this photographic journey of the “Roma Coast to Coast” series, I walked along the city walls (both the visible and no longer existing ones). I touched the 18 gates that made up the original Walls. A circular journey started at Porta San Paolo, alongside the Pyramid of Cestius, crossing Testaccio and Trastevere, skirting the Tiber up to Piazza del Popolo, then Piazza Fiume, San Lorenzo, San Giovanni and many other historical glimpses of the capital.
In my "Roma Coast to Coast" series, which I took after three years of not participating in reportage walking, I walked for 20km along the ancient Aurelian Walls. These old city walls surround the historical centre of Rome. The Aurelian Walls, today, are an integral part of the daily life of those who live in Rome and are witnesses of the changes that the city has gone through in almost 2000 years.

Every one of OP's pix are beautiful. If you can visit Rome, do your homework. Some Sundays the "green belt" is shut down to traffic. We rented bikes and easily visited 5 major attractions that day. It was pure luck on our part

It's an art installation called "All potential targets" and dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust. It's in Piazzale Ostiense

Yeah, okay. 3 years ago
The wonderful thing about Rome - and so many other European cities- is you put your hand out and you'll rest it on a stone carved and placed by people from a thousand years ago. You live among the concrete echos of the work and aspirations and dreams of people from time immemorial. Coming from a city that is just over 100 years old in Canada, I am in awe of places like this.

These are absolutely beautiful pictures. Is it possible to get some context, locations. Anything that will help understand the picture

Ciao. I want to know how you cleared out the tourists! Also, you didn't supply a manhole cover. With that cool SPQR logo.
