    You probably know the famous phrase, “the die is cast,” but have you ever wondered where it comes from? Well look no further. It was here in Rimini’s Piazza Tre Martiri that Julius Caesar first spoke these three immortal words, just before he started a civil war. There are traces of the great empire that followed all over Rimini, including the Arch of Augustus, the Roman Amphitheatre, the home of a second century Roman doctor and the Bridge of Tiberius. But we won’t only explore ancient Rome on this self guided audio tour. There’s plenty from the fascinating Italian medieval period and the Renaissance that put Italy once again on top of the world, including the impressive but unfinished Malatestiano Temple, and the austere Sigismond Castle. You’ll find all of this in a city that isn't even famous for its architecture and history, but for its sandy beaches, exciting nightlife and the hills, fun parks and historical castles that are just a short drive inland.
