Lonely Planet review for Largo di Torre Argentina

A busy transport hub, Largo di Torre Argentina is set around the sunken Area Sacra and the remains of four Republican-era temples. These ruins are off-limits to humans but home to a thriving population of 250 stray cats and a cat sanctuary. To visit the ruins, some of the oldest in Rome, the sanctuary runs a free guided tour at 4pm on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. On the piazza’s western flank is Rome’s premier theatre, the Teatro Argentina, built close to the spot where Julius Caesar was murdered in 44 BC.
