An experience to get to know the true essence of Rome's underground We will visit:
The Virgin aqueduct
As many as 11 aqueducts reached Rome, an enormous quantity that was equaled only in the modern era.
We will take you to the basement of a shopping center to visit the ancient aqueduct and then we will get to see where the water comes out, in the famous Trevi fountain.
The Stadium of Domitian
Piazza Navona is one of the obligatory destinations for those coming to Rome, but many do not know that the shape of the square is the shape of a Roman stadium, the Stadio di Domiziano.
The first masonry stadium in Rome (1st century AD) for athletics and boxing competitions.
We will then go down to the basement to discover its beauties.
The Capuchin Crypt
A cemetery literally built from bones! The chambers are decorated with the remains of around 4,000 friars. The message at the end of the crypt reads: "What we were, you are now. What we are now, you will be."
