5/5
Nero's Golden House where he used to stage lavish banquets and have elephants and other exotic animals parading through its corridors. Despite its proximity to the Colosseum, the now subterranean palace tends to be unfamiliar to all but those with a more expert knowledge of the city. Michaelangelo, Ghirlandaio and Raphael used to descend on ropes to take sketches of the beautiful frescoes by candlelight - Raphael was so inspired by what he saw that he used these as the basis for the decoration of the Loggia at the Vatican. Sadly a large section of the palace collapsed following heavy rainfall in 2010 and in true Italian style there has been chaotic bickering about the future of the restoration programme.

    A ruin in ancient Rome, this place is still very famous in history, and it is also a royal palace. You can see the restoration map here in the introduction. The tickets here are free and you can visit here very freely. [Cost-effective] Very good value for money

    Every attraction in Rome is worth your taste and observation. This Golden Palace is also free, because there are too many attractions in Rome, you can only hurry to watch the flowers, but look back at the photos and still give you a different feeling.

    The ruins of Rome, an elegy of the ancient Roman Empire that has not fallen behind, a history that shimmers with civilization, wisdom and creation, and a monument that will always tower over people's hearts. (2019/5)

    Nero's Golden House needs to be booked beforehand. It doesn't look very much on the outside, but once you get into the house, it's huge. Tour guides will provide virtual reality headphones to see what it looks like in its heyday. It's humid and cool inside, and wear a thin coat in August when it's hot.

    You can see from the canal boat that the magnificent building is the Golden Palace, standing in the water. It is often called "Golden Palace" because it used to decorate the exterior walls with gold plating. The main facade of the Golden Palace is facing the Grand Canal, and its style is the colorful Venetian Gothic style.

    Nero's huge palace was discovered by accident, because it was covered with huge yellow mud, but it was still excavated. Using a 3D guided tour to see what Nero Palace looks like is really amazing.
