It's along the Appian Way, southeast of Rome. Note the Tomb of Romulus, the son of Maxentius who died a boy, immediately adjacent the circus. If you zoom out, you can see how the Circus of Maxentius is not all that much smaller than the Circus Maximus (which is indeed maximus!).

Rome is very detailed--the Campidoglio, the Coliseum, the Pantheon, the Vatican, etc., etc.--all fun to see from the air. Now on to Santa Costanza and the ruins of the original Basilica of St. Agnes.
