A low concrete roar rises before the group reaches the Monte Mario gate and the city falls away; the marble statues that ring Stadio dei Marmi seem to turn their faces toward the pitch as visitors step through the players' entrance. This guided visit moves from open-air monuments along the Tiber to the hushed interior of the Olympic Stadium, where fluorescent lights and leather benches replace the outdoor air.
