Ancient Ostia

📜 Some history: Ostia Antica, just 30 minutes from the Colosseum, offers ancient thrills to rival Pompeii (which is four hours south of Rome — making Pompeii a doable, but much more arduous day trip than Ostia). Wandering around the ruins today, you can see the remains of the docks, warehouses, apartment flats, mansions, shopping arcades, and baths — all giving a peek at Roman lifestyles.
📍 Location:
Ostia Antica, Viale dei Romagnoli, 717, 00119 Roma RM, Italy

Villa Adriana (Tivoli)

📜 Some history: Many people do not know, but to the immediate west of Tivoli you can find an immense complex that was created for the Roman Emperor Hadrian. Covering an area of 120 hectares, this magnificent complex contains a myriad of well-preserved structures and offers superb insight into ancient Rome.
