Over the years I have taken a number of my 15 grandchildren here. The teenagers enjoyed climbing up the stairs and seeing the views of Rome available from the top of the monument. It is a great walking destination for all ages!

This is pretty massive in scale. The monument is a contrast to the surrounding attractions of Rome but this is proving to be holding its own. This monument hosts amazing views of the Roman Forum and the rest of the city. Also great during sunrise and sunset. It's free to enter but staff are pretty strict about not sitting or stepping on railings.

Lots of historical place to visit. Churches will bring you back in time it’s magical how the architecture could bring us back the history. Tourists friendly. From the restaurant through the public transport. Don’t be afraid of getting lost the Roman speak english fluently. On our 3rd day we’re just can’t get more pizza or pasta’s we’ve got our doses.

This was the most unexpected and overwhelming part of our 2 day visit to Rome and although many, many memories were made during the break, this place will hold the strongest. We were just walking by looking at the magnificent structure and although relatively new, it is still a sight to behold and is wonderful. We hadn't looked into this monument at all and in all honesty before coming across it hadn't even realised it existed. We noticed people walking up the steps at the front and joined them wishing to take a closer look. The site is free to enter and there is a museum in there somewhere but when we went to enter a door with a sculpture behind we were rudely told to find the entrance and not to go in. We carried on through and came across a restaurant/bar area and I looked for somewhere to sit whilst my husband went to get some lunch and a cocktail. The seating is chaotic and there is no real etiquette to finding a table. I managed to find one with amazing views over Rome. Unfortunately my husband was shouted at for trying to bring my lunch to me as there were birds outside. Coming from a seaside town, we are used to seagulls and felt a bit annoyed that we were forced to go inside to a hot greenhouse style room instead of enjoying our lunch in the fresh air with a view. We didn't let it bother us too much and carried on our exploration. Heading around the back of the building, expecting to find the entrance to the elusive museum we came across a lift. Not having an idea at all that you could go even further up this building and enjoy the 360 degree panoramic views, we were so happy. It was relatively quiet and although the boards are pretty worn you can make out all of the iconic landmarks within the city and we spent far longer up there than we should have but kept seeing more and more and realised this really would have been a great starting point for our visit to Rome. It really gives you such a good idea of locations and directions of things to visit. We left feeling such a high and were so happy we came across this wonderful place. We never did find the entrance to the museum but don't think we missed out too much.

We didn’t see this on any of the main ‘to do’ lists of Rome but think it should be! The building is free to enter, but for €15 per adult (some discounted options too) you can go in to the museum and lift to the top of the building. Out of everywhere we went, this was by far the best view looking out over Rome and seeing all the different sites in the distance.

This huge piazza is a lovely park with much to enjoy. The ruins are an ancient monument (Trofei di Monti) built at the end of an aqueduct by emperor Alexander Severus In the park’s center is a lovely a fountain. A marvelous wall relief and modern decoration, so different from each other are a joy to see.

Worth climbing the steps for an amazing view. The cafe is lovely and not a rip off which makes a change! If you want to go to the very top there is a lift and you have to pay 15 euros each which we didn’t do. There is also a very interesting exhibition with photos of Rome during the pandemic. Also various boards with information on the way up describing the features.

Commemorating Italy's reunification in 1861 and Victor Emmanuel II, its first king, the building is also known as the Altar of the Fatherland of the Wedding Cake. Whatever name you use, its marble is eyecatching. You can tour the building. It is also worth climbing for its perspective over Rome, including its facing Piazza Venezia.

This is a true monument.Incredibly well designed in the classic wedding cake manner. You can climb up the stars and get a great view of the city.There is an elevator at the back which can take you to the top [15euros]. It's impossible to miss and you will come across it in your travels.

We could see the Monumento a Vittorio from our hotel window and didn't know much about it. It is a definite sight to see. We went up the stairs but did not go inside. It looks quite interesting- as we were told the Italians say you either love it or hate it!
