Fodor's Expert Review Stadio Palatino

Palatine Hill Ruins

Built by Domitian and erroneously referred to since the 19th century as the "stadium," this was, in fact, a sunken garden that created a terrace on the slopes of the hill. It may also have been used to stage games (but not chariot races) and other amusements for the emperor's benefit.
