Trajan's Market

Template:WPlocations

The Mercati di Traiano is a landmark within Rome, and was the location of a Templar Lair.

History

A fine example of the many enduring landmarks left behind by prolific Roman building, Emperor Trajan, his Mercati was thought to be the world's oldest shopping mall, and when fully operational, it housed no less than 150 shops and offices.

Designed by Trajan's favorite architect, Apollodorus of Damascus, between 107 and 110 C.E, it was considered one of the wonders of the ancient world, located over a 91 mile long aqueduct that provided the whole city with clean water.
