8 Ancient Ruins in Pigna That You Shouldn't Miss
Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

The ruins of Torre Argentina, a tower that was erected on the site where Burckard, papal master of ceremonies, had his house built, is today the home of a large volunteer cat shelter.

Hard to believe that the ruins of the Roman temples of Largo di Torre Argentina date back to the 3rd century BC. This vast site known as the place of Julius Caesar’s assassination is located in the heart of Rome, on the intersection of two busy streets very close to the Jewish Ghetto, so it is really easy to visit it. Nothing much is left from the Ancient Rome days and you cannot browse there, but you can walk around and see the ruins from the street level. It is s very special place in Rome: the cat sanctuary, where strayed cats live their happy lives, they are well fed, neutered and taken care of by the small group of volunteers. When I walked around the site, three friendly and good looking cats gave me the warmest welcome. The furry gray kitty on the photo I posted was especially affectionate though she looks very serious on the picture????. Lovely!!!

Worth the walk, sitting in front of an Egyptian obelisk that’s thousands of years old looking up at a building that’s stood the tests of time is awe inspiring, the beauty and craftsmanship is outstanding and it’s one of the many many sites to visit in this amazing city. After visiting all the sites watch Angels and demons and the Italian job with Micheal Caine just to say you was there!
