2,000-Year-Old Rome Pyramid Gets in the Tourists' Attention

 

An italian team of archeologits made the discovery of a lifetime. With the help of a passionate Japanese well know for his clothing business that made a donation and paid for a total cleanup, an incredible 2000 year old pyramid was revealed. The archeologists were proud to announce that the monument will soon be ready to welcome its guests. With a lengedary history, the pyramid was the burial tomb of a Roman praetor or judge, called Caius Cestius.

The Eternal City had thus added to the myriad of museums and monuments a new and extremely fascinating place ready to be visited by for tourists. Rome honors its long history with landmarks, places of worship and restored ruins that offer a look into the amazing times of the  Roman Empire. While The Colosseum is a demonstration of the compositional aptitudes of the old Roman architects and offers knowledge into a way of life that enjoyed the human fighting agains each other or against animals, the Forum was the main point of city life, hosting to celebrations, festivities, funerals and ceremonies, the Pyramid will without a doubt uncover some unprecedented bits of knowledge into the astounding Roman World.

Although soaring 36 meters (119 feet) high, the pyramid has long been ignored by most tourists. Decades of grime blackened the creamy white Carrara marble exterior of the monument near a traffic-clogged intersection near a subway stop. The pyramid's base is lower than street level since Rome has been built up over the centuries, so many don't appreciate the monument's height.

Albeit its hight of 36 meters (119 feet), the pyramid has for quite some time been overlooked by generally voyagers. Many years of grime darkened the rich white Carrara marble outside of the landmark, close to a traffic aria, nearby a metro stop. The pyramid's base is lower than the  road level since Rome has been developed throughout the hundreds of years, so the hight of the pyramid was not appreciated by many.

The 200 year old pyramid welcomes its guests with special tours that are given twice a month upon request, offering a view on the frescoed burial chamber.
