Domus Transitoria, Ancient Roman residence in Palatine Hill, Rome, Italy
The Domus Transitoria extends beneath the Domus Aurea, featuring marble decorations, water features, and underground passages across multiple levels.
Emperor Nero constructed this palace in 54 CE as his first imperial residence, which later burned during the Great Fire of Rome in 64 CE.
The residence contained intricate floor mosaics, painted stucco ceilings, and colored marble walls reflecting Roman architectural design and engineering.
Visitors can access the archaeological remains through guided tours starting at the Roman Forum entrance near the Arch of Titus.
The palace incorporated an advanced hydraulic system that channeled water through internal fountains and distributed it across different building sections.
