Roman Forum & Palatine Hill: is it wheelchair accessible?

Due to the natural topography of the ancient hills of the Palatine, Velia, Oppius and the valley of the Forum and Colosseum, the Park comprises a vast archaeological area that is largely uneven, accessible through historic paths that are often uneven, with numerous elevation changes and unlevelled ancient stairs. Furthermore, the Flavian Amphitheatre has very steep stairs and paths that are in places disconnected and uneven
Translation · original in ItalianPer lo sviluppo naturale sulle antiche colline del Palatino, della Velia, dell’Oppio e nella valle del Foro e del Colosseo, il Parco comprende una vasta area archeologica per la maggior parte non pianeggiante, accessibile attraverso percorsi storici spesso accidentati, con numerosi dislivelli e scale antiche non livellate. Inoltre l’Anfiteatro Flavio presenta scale molto ripide e percorsi a tratti sconnessi e accidentati.

Solo dalla fine del VII secolo a.C., dopo la bonifica della valle, iniziò a prendere forma il Foro Romano destinato a rimanere il centro della vita pubblica per oltre un millennio.
