⭐ Core Definition: Via dei Fori Imperiali

The Via dei Fori Imperiali (formerly Via dei Monti, then Via dell'Impero) is a road in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy, that is in a straight line from the Piazza Venezia to the Colosseum. The road was built in 1932 to rediscover and made visible the Imperial fora: Forum of Trajan, Forum of Augustus and Forum of Nerva, as well as Trajan's Market, previously hidden under the buildings. Most of these monuments can be seen on both sides of the road. The street is lined with stone pines (Pinus pinea). Since the 1990s, there has been a new deal of archaeological excavation along the road and in its gardens.

Via dei Fori Imperiali in the context of Trajan's Market

Trajan's Market (Latin: Mercatus Traiani; Italian: Mercati di Traiano) is a large complex of ruins in the city of Rome, Italy, located on the Via dei Fori Imperiali, at the opposite end to the Colosseum. The surviving buildings and structures, built as an integral part of Trajan's Forum and nestled against the excavated flank of the Quirinal Hill, present a living model of life in the Roman capital and a glimpse at the restoration in the city, which reveals new treasures and insights about ancient Roman architecture.

Thought to be the world's oldest shopping mall, the arcades in Trajan's Market are now believed by many to be administrative offices for Emperor Trajan. The shops and apartments were built in a multi-level structure and it is still possible to visit several of the levels. Highlights include delicate marble floors and the remains of a library.
