Day 3 Rome - Appian Way Tour
August 17, 2024 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Today we went on a 26 km historic e bike tour through the Appianway, Roman aqueduct and the catacombs. The Appian way was a vital highway to connect Rome to other parts of Italy and the Roman Empire abroad including Egypt. The catacombs were where Christian martyrs were buried and was instrumental in forming Christianity in Rome and the aqueducts were a major feat of engineering bringing water from the mountains to Rome.Read more
