It is the Termini Station , which was built in 1867 and is located in the old Esquilino district, right in the historic center, so from there it is very easy to visit all the places of interest, at least the most important. At 10 minutes walking you have the Basilica of Santa María La Mayor, at 15 the Colosseum and the Roman Forum and at 20 the Via Condotti, one of the most important commercial points of Rome .

Undoubtedly a strategic point to get to know the whole city in comfortable and fast movements.
