What Did Ancient Rome Look Like? (Cinematic Animation)

Now imagine the above, but with a load of cars, buses and trucks. Just shows how beautiful cities can be when they are for primarily for pedestrians, without dirty motorized vehicles. (I don't think that cyclists, scooter drivers, a few buses and subway station entrances would ruin the beauty too much.)

Wotta great vid.

Thank you. 😊

wow😍

Honestly, it's not colorful enough! Extant paintings show not just red and white, but yellow, blue, green, and more. From clothing to walls!

Not enough color. Impressive, but if you just corrected that you would have …. Perfection

Ma noi stiamo in Italia o in Inghilterra che dobbiamo sorbirci quasi tutti i documentari in inglese? Ma che moda è questa?

I'm sure it was a lot dirtier no way Rome could stay this clean unless it was built in a day.😉

Thank you

This is a truly stunning representation! Thank you so very much for creating this and sharing this outstanding masterpiece ❤

Where are the slums.....

Sublime reconstitution en image de synthèse de la Rome antique 🏛 le phare est de toute beauté Merci🙏 pour ce somptueux moment

The film would have been more useful and instructive if the places in the individual scenes had actually been labelled so one knew where one was supposed to be.

Modern architects! Please learn something from this video.

...more beautiful than any city in our world today... ❤...

I loved the visuals - it would have been good though if some of the buildings were actual buildings from Rome to have labelled them (apart from the Coliseum of course) - also many hundreds of thousands of Romans lived in tenement slums so this was certainly not focused on them

a beautiful place but an unbelievably cruel place.

Amazing video! I would love to see what ancient Jerusalem looked like.

music is beautiful but perhaps a little more realistic sounds like people walking, talking, shouting, building things, horses trodding, sounds of fountains.. the rest is so beautiful we really don't even need music.

Let’s reconstruct it!

It's nice but a little too, "1950s Amercan Dream rose glasses"

I'm sure some neighborhoods did look like this for wealthy senators, edials or the like but what about the slums and "bad neighborhoods"?

Roman slums were pretty notorious.

Why is so much of this gone? The buildings were so substantial. You’d think that more of them would still be around today, not just a few.

Are you still making these awesome videos? Truly epic.

LIKE SHIT.

Incredible. Oustanding. ETs.
"Rome" is still imbedded in everything from Uruguay to Iceland. But maybe not for long ...

They should rebuild it. Modern architecture sucks.

I’ve never felt this civilised

I didn’t know they had drones back then.

Excellent. Thank you for adding people .

Very pretty, but that's not really Rome. Wonder what it smelled like in Rome?

How did we go from this to the dark ages?

May the re-building of Rome become a part of the Great Reset.

Beautiful, but hardly accurate.

Imagine just casually living somewhere this beautiful

Beautiful

In the tapestry of time, the Roman Empire unfurls like a phoenix soaring across the skies, its wings outstretched, casting a colossal shadow over the annals of history. A force of nature that breathed life into the ancient world, it rose from the ashes of its own genesis, fueled by the fiery passions of its architects. The majesty of this ethereal titan is embodied in the very stones that make up its grand edifices;

The Colosseum, a monument to the titanic struggle for survival and glory, stands as the sun at the center of this celestial empire. Its radiant beams of light illuminate the tapestry of time, casting vibrant hues upon the annals of history. Within its hallowed walls, the echoes of a thousand triumphant roars and the clash of steel reverberate through the ages, an eternal symphony that heralds the indomitable spirit of Rome.

The Roman Forum, the bustling epicenter of politics, commerce, and culture, is a labyrinth of architectural marvels, where marble columns stretch towards the heavens like divine pillars. Here, the wisdom of Cicero and the stratagems of Caesar reverberate through the whispers of the wind, and the spirits of great statesmen and philosophers linger in these corridors, their astral forms intermingling with the cosmic dust of the ages.

The Pantheon, an architectural supernova, explodes with divine energy and the boundless wisdom of the cosmos. Its celestial dome, encrusted with the jewels of the heavens, captures the essence of eternity within its hallowed sanctuary. A cosmic gateway to the divine, its oculus peers into the unfathomable depths of the universe, unraveling the mysteries of the celestial bodies that dance across the firmament.

The aqueducts, the sinewy veins of the empire, stretch across the land like the arteries of a sleeping giant, carrying the lifeblood of civilization to the farthest corners of the known world. An eternal testament to the ingenuity of Rome, these stone serpents quench the thirst of the empire, irrigating the fertile fields that sustain her people and nourishing the dreams and ambitions of her countless denizens.

The Roman Empire, a blazing comet in the night sky, illuminates the dark corners of history with the brilliance of its achievements. Its grandeur and glory, etched into the annals of time, are immortalized in the hearts and minds of those who bear witness to its splendor. A symbol of human aspiration, the Empire represents the indomitable will to conquer the unknown, to forge a legacy that transcends the boundaries of time, and to etch our names in the stars.

Title of music please.

Nice

Rome with sea ???

Wow, Rome has let itself go a bit over the years.
How did they manage to breed horses that didn't defecate in the streets? (Classic period low-emission zone?)

Stunning!

WOW, WOW, WOW!! Animation is absolutely gorgeous. And so realistic!

Best I have ever seen.
❤❤❤

Stupenda e meravigliosa ricostruzione di Roma antica.... Bravi complimenti 👍👍👍

Men think about the Roman Empire constantly because we’re obsessed with how things work in life.

Why the Roman Empire? Because it’s all-encompassing.

The Roman Empire was extremely large and complicated yet brutally effective.

Aesthetically beautiful.

Militarily successful, economically brilliant.

There was treachery and brotherhood.

There were rich and slaves.

It’s the first fully studied and well-known period of ancient history from which we can draw exact comparisons.

In many ways, they were exactly like us.

And they pulled off this empire with no modern technology.

We can’t relate to the Mongol empire.

They were nothing like us.

The innate protective instincts inside of us also want to understand how something so amazing could be destroyed.

What went “wrong”

We look for the lessons in their construction and destruction and extrapolate/apply them across all areas of life.

If women understood the fall of the Roman Empire their entire politics would change.

But women don’t think about the Roman Empire.

Truthfully -

Women don’t think about it very much at all.

Women feel things.

That’s their superpower.

And they think about what they feel and why.

They very rarely dedicate cognition to anything outside of immediate emotion.

We know exactly what Rome looked like. Have you been to Rome? It looks exactly the same!!! Even today it's pretty clear an emperor or two lived there.

I can see no Rome here... 🤷🏻‍♂️
Is a fictional and quite illogic urban layout . Romans were much better urbanists

It is beautiful

I wonder that mankind could build such impresive structure at that time..but electricity came late.they just used torches or any kinds

What I would give to live in that time.
