Tours - Trajan's Market

The Markets of Trajan give a tantalizing glimpse of what Rome was really like at the absolute height of its power, under the Emperor Trajan. This ancient landmark was a high-end shopping mall complex, designed by one of the greatest architects of ancient Roman times. It now houses a museum dedicated to the various extensions to the Roman Forum that were built from Julius Caesar’s time onwards. The site is fully wheelchair accessible and open seven days a week.
