★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this peaceful place out in the Tuscan countryside. Some very impressive Roman ruins that you can wander around and contemplate the historic past. Never very busy, we've been several times and often had the place to ourselves. There are informative captions, no tour guides and no entry fee just a man/woman in a hut who may or may not ask you for a donation. Such a contrast to the ruins in Rome. Watch out for humming bird moths in the vetch plants at the back of the site by the Roman road. Also watch out for the rangy wild cats that like to play with and devour the huge locusts that also frequent the site.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We arrived just after 1PM and the site was locked up so we walked up and down the road and decided it was impressive enough to wait until it opened at 2. Deb had a snooze while I caught up on emails and then we went to the entrance just after 2. The site is run by volunteers from the Tuscia Archeology group and the lady that was there was fantastic. She explained about the site and how they had excavated different areas and the sheer size of it before telling us about the history and eventual destruction of the city. It really bought it to life and such passion was lovely to see.
The whole time we were there we were the only visitors which is rather tragic for such a well preserved site. It could certainly do with having a higher profile as we only knew of it due to me browsing Google maps. The theatre is still in use for summer concerts and was designed to seat 3000 people. The bath complex has also been excavated but the rest of the city is on private land so is still buried.
