Rome Domus Aurea Tickets with VR Experience

The Domus Aurea was one of the most ambitious projects of Nero’s Rome. Conceived following the fire of 64 AD, it covered a vast area and was adorned with marble, frescoes, gardens and spaces designed to reflect the emperor’s power.

Today, much of that complex remains underground, but exploring its rooms offers a glimpse into a very different side of ancient Rome. During the tour , you’ll be able to see decorated rooms, architectural remains and frescoes that have survived the passage of the centuries.

The experience is enhanced by virtual reality, which helps to reconstruct what can no longer be seen physically. Using the headsets provided, you can view 3D representations of the ancient spaces and gain a better understanding of how the palace was organised and decorated during the imperial era.

You’ll also discover how the Domus Aurea came to light again centuries later and how its rediscovery during the Renaissance influenced artists fascinated by those ancient decorations.

The combination of archaeology and technology makes the visit a particularly vivid way of engaging with the history of Rome, moving from the present-day remains to an interpretation of what this spectacular complex might have looked like almost two thousand years ago.
