Free visits to the Roman Forum will become history March 10 when an entry fee will be charged for the first time in ten years. Entrance to the Forum will be included in a single ticket that visitors now buy to enter the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill. The new ticket policy will help Rome’s archaeological office pay for ongoing work on new sites, exhibitions and conservation projects. Also on March 10 authorities will reopen the palace of Emperor Augustus atop the Palatine Hill after decades of restoration.
