Let's explore, by a private transfer, a park that is also an open-air museum, the Appian Way Park. We are really close to the historical center of Rome, but at the same time we are surrounded by Roman ruins and green nature. This road was included in the "Grand tour d'Italie", a journey that European poets , artist and intellectuals shuould take since the middle of the XVIII centrury to compleate their studies. There are Christian catacombs, mausoleums on both sides of the ancient road, ruins of funerary monuments of noble ancient families, imperial palaces and even an ancient circus, that the Emperor Maxentius built for the entertainment of his guests. Stories and mysteries connected to important people that lived in ancient time, whose tombs or properties are here, will lead us in a journey along the daily history of Rome. This is the beauty of the Appian Way, which still preserves intact its charm along the centuries. This tour is perfect for all the people interested in art, history and nature.
This is a perfect itinerary if you want exit the city center and enjoy the Roman countryside as it was since the last 200 years: - Porta San Sebastiano: admire one of the most preserved entrances of the ancient Aurelian Walls that surrounded the ancient city of Rome; - Saint Sebastian Catacombs: explore this biggest first Christian cemeteries close a pagan one, with mausoleums perfectly preserved in the underground; - Maxentius' Villa: enter this archaeological park and explore the ruins of Maxentius circus for chariot races and the tomb of his son Romulus; - Cecilia Metella's Mausoleum: enter and listen the story of this attraction, perfectly preserved and turned into a castle in the middle age.
