The Esquiline is the largest and highest of Rome's seven hills. The area is full of historical monuments. On the Colle Oppio, a smaller hill to the south of the Esquiline, you can see the remains of the Baths of Trajan and Nero's Golden House. The area's main interest, however, lies in its churches. Many of these were founded on the sites of private houses where Christians met to worship secretly in the days when the religion was bannned. |
