Mussolini’s Fascist Rome – An Architecture Walking Tour Around EUR District

This unique bus and walking architecture tour allows you to explore the obscure district of EUR. Originally chosen in the 1930's as the site for the 1942 World Fair, Mussolini's building project in Esposizione Universale Roma (EUR) included an architecture style that was truly the first of its kind."Rational Architecture" was defined by its modern, exaggerated and authoritarian structures, using the same type of stone as the Colosseum.

Unfortunately, the onset of WWII prevented the World Fair from actually happening, but you can still see the architecture, now a symbol of this Fascist period of Italy. An undiscovered neighborhood with buildings so unique, they stand out from the rest of Rome.
