Percorsi nel verde alle pendici del Palatino / Paths in the green on the slopes of the Palatine

Using detailed texts, illustrations and maps, this guide accompanies visitors across the slopes of the Palatine Hill which, together with its monumental remains, are now accessible to the public after many years.
This itinerary in five stages visits sites of great symbolic value for the city, the mythical places where Rome was founded that bear witness to history with sumptuous Imperial residences, from the house of Augustus to Severus’ palaces. Over the centuries, the architectural scenario has turned into a charming natural landscape so an in-depth study is dedicated to the flora of the hill, examined not only botanically but in its links to history and literature, too.
