Take Metro A to Barberini or Spagna, then walk/bus to Corso Vittorio Emanuele II.
A high-tech time machine! This immersive 3D show uses physical models and projections to show how Rome grew from a village to an empire. The building itself is the historic Cinema Augustus. Official Site
Easy 5-minute walk (400m) north via Via di Pasquino.
Easter Egg: Stop at the "Talking Statue" of Pasquino on the corner; Romans have been pinning anonymous satirical notes here for centuries.

Rome's most elegant "living room," built over an ancient stadium. Kids will love the street performers and the dramatic Fountain of the Four Rivers. In the 17th century, the square was flooded in summer to create a "lake" for aristocrats to splash in.
5-minute walk (350m) east via Corsia del Rinascimento.

The world's largest unreinforced concrete dome, standing for nearly 2,000 years. The giant hole in the ceiling (oculus) is the only light source. When it rains, the water disappears into 22 tiny, almost invisible holes in the marble floor. Official Site
8-minute walk (650m) east via Via del Seminario.

A Baroque masterpiece where water crashes over giant marble gods. It’s the ultimate spot for a family photo, especially as the lights come on. Roughly €3,000 in coins are thrown into the fountain every single day.
A grand staircase leading to the Trinità dei Monti church. At the base, you'll find the "Sinking Boat" fountain, designed to look like a flooded vessel. The steps were actually funded by a French diplomat, despite the name. Official Site
