Ostia Antica — Parco Archeologico

Lazio

Ostia Antica preserves the street grid of Rome's main port almost intact, from its Roman theatre and forum to blocks of multi-storey apartment buildings, all set among umbrella pines. Gravel paths link the excavated quarters, giving a shaded, easy walk through one of Italy's best-preserved ancient cities.
