★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nice break from the heat high above Rome in the cover of several trees, huge expanse of ruins overlooking circus maximus.
Great view point across the forum ruins, all part of the entry ticket for the coliseum.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The most complete part of the imperial palaces on the Palatine. Here you get a sense of the scale and opulence of the Roman Emperors. However, this so-called "hippodrome" or "stagdium" is only shaped like the namesakes. It was in reality a sunken garden and most of the statuary in the nearby Palatine museum comes from here.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a really great place to visit. You have access with your Colosseum tickets, but for some reason not a lot of people go. I actually like it more than the Colosseum. There was a lot room to walk around and get really close looks at everything. The views of the ruins are spectacular from end to end. You can really imagine what beautiful views Palatine Hill had of the gardens and forum and chariot races at Circus Maximus. Location, Location, Location.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I did not expect to find a hippodrome on the Palatine hill. A new about the Circus Maximus down the hill, but was not aware of this feature in the Domus Flavia. Nevertheless, it is preserved in a very good condition and there is a nice lookout on the side of the Palatine hill (see the attached pictures). As I later learned, the Stadium was built by Domitian in the end of 1st century AD (along with the Odeon and the Domus Flavia itself). And in fact, this was neither a stadium, nor a hippodrome, but a sunken garden ... Visited April 2017

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Palatino was ancient Rome’s most exclusive neighbourhood.
The emperor Augustus lived here all his life and successive
emperors built increasingly opulent palaces. But after Rome’s fall, it
fell into disrepair, and in the Middle Ages churches and castles were
built over the ruins. Later, wealthy Renaissance families had
landscaped gardens laid out on the site.
Most of the Palatino as it appears today is covered by the ruins of
the emperor Domitian’s 1st-century complex, which served as the
main imperial palace for 300 years.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was perhaps my favorite site in the whole ancient complex. One their just weren’t as many people, this place is tucked away on top of the hill. And the autumn colors were beautiful and cool. We just had a great time strolling across this part of the site.
