What to do and see in Termini, Lazio: The Best Museums
Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

Palazzo Massimo alle Terme was built between 1883 and 1887 by the architect Camillo Pistrucci in a sober neo-Renaissance style. He was born as a Jesuit college and remained so until 1960. In 1981 it was acquired by the Italian State and became one of the four National Roman Museum places. The collections are distributed in the four floors of the building according to a chronological and thematic criterion: the ground floor, the first and second floors are dedicated to the ancient art section; the basement houses the numismatic and goldsmith sections.

The Museo Nazionale Romano - Palazzo Massimo is just one of the sites of the Museo Nazionale Romano. You can buy a great value combination ticket that allows you to visit the other sites (the visits need to occur within a certain timeframe that I can't remember off the top of my head - their website will tel you). The Palazzo Massimo site houses sculpture, mosaics and frescos including the frescos from the garden room of the Villa of Livia and the Boxer at Rest sculpture. The museum is located almost directly opposite the Roma Termini train station, with one of their other sites (Baths of Diocletian) located within a 2 minute walk. There is a small cafe onsite which does light lunches, coffee etc. The audioguide is well worth hiring as some of the signage can be a bit sparse.

It's surprising that this museum isn't busier than it is - plenty to look at and a beautiful garden in the centre to relax in, without the crowds found in other parts of the city. Of great historical interest and a good place to spend a few hours, it is next to Rome Termini station so handy for travellers looking to while away some time.
