Something really special to crown your roman holidays.
Not everybody realizes that, at only 20' from the Capital, an extraordinary archeological site, as important and enticing as Pompei, awaits us: the impressive excavations of Ancient Ostia. This was the city-harbor funded by ancient Romans, at the mouth of the Tiber, ' and which later was hidden by floods and oblivion at to our days. Its remnants are thus better preserved than in Rome itself and offer us an extraordinary testimonial of the Roman civilisation along its whole evolution. By walking trough the ancient roads we will plunge straight into the past everyday's life of a refined and dynamic city^ where the cult for arts and pleasures was sovereign. You will admire in fact the ruins of majestic public buildings, like temples, theatres, fora or basilicas as well as of the private ones, like houses, shops, inns, workshops etc., ranging from
sumptuos to the humblest. Particularly attractive are the famous mosaics of the 12 thermal baths and of the various harbor offices (Corporations Square). A further bonus: archeology spared the whole area from modern artefacts turning it into a delicious natural oasis, constantly cooled by healtly see breezes.
