Ever wondered what ancient Rome looked like at the height of its power? This virtual flyover by Manuel Bravo reconstructs the Eternal City as it stood in the second century AD, soaring above temples, forums, basilicas, and monuments with the smooth perspective of a modern drone, something no actual Roman ever experienced.
From the Capitoline Hill and the Roman Forum to the Senate, the Rostra where Cicero delivered his speeches, and even the eerie Tullianum prison, it’s a fantastic journey through one of history’s greatest cities. If you’ve ever wished for a time machine, this is probably the next best thing. Check it out!
