Turin, Italy is home to some remarkable sites remaining from the ancient Roman Empire.
Among these is the Palatine Towers, a structure which, for the most part, has stood for more than six hundred years.
Once, this was one of four colossal gates in the Roman city's defensive wall.
The two flanking towers were not part of the original wall, but were later additions.
The Palatine Towers is part of a park in Turin, which holds ruins of the original wall.
Replicas of Roman statues were placed in front of the gate, completing the ancient Roman experience.
Though the structure bears the marks of age, it is still accessible to visitors.
