Next, cross the Tiber River to Isola Tiberina. This small island was dedicated to Aesculapius, the Roman god of medicine, and played a significant role in healing practices.

From there, continue to the Portico di Ottavia, a grand structure built by Emperor Augustus in honour of his mother, Atia. This monumental portico once served as a grand entrance to the Theatre of Marcellus, another significant site in the area.
