About
The "Island of the Mad" in Venice.
The Parco degli Acquedotti is nestled in the breathtaking Roman countryside of "Campagna Romana", which has been celebrated by painters throughout the ages. Despite its close proximity to Rome, this suburban park is rarely visited by tourists, yet it merited conservation status in 1988 thanks to the two-year activism of local citizens. This modest oasis preserves two colossal ancient aqueducts and defines one of Rome's most iconic vistas.
