Site I Have Not Been To Yet #1

Museum of Rome Civilization (Museo della Civita Romana)
This museum has 59 rooms filled with plaster casts, and scale models of what exactly Rome looked like in 400AD. What really got me interested about this place was that I could see what all of these old ruins would have looked like when they were new. It is great to see places like the Forum now, but I would kill to see what it actually did look like. Instead of just walking through piles of stones, and broken pillars, I want to see what these places looked like in their prime. This museum is located in the EUR, on Via Dell Arte.
