The archaeological area of ​​the ancient port of Rome is a real treasure only a few km away from the city. Its name derives from “ostium” which stems from the Latin “mouth”; in fact, it owes its existence to the proximity of the river Tiber and the sea. According to tradition, it was the King of Rome Ancus Marcius who founded this port city around 620BC. 
The archaeological site preserves splendid mosaics, ancient streets, shops, houses, as well as pagan, Jewish and Christian places of worship, a magnificent theatre (still in use today for summer events), thermal baths and latrines. 
Strolling around through the ruins you will feel like going back in time and really living in the age of ancient Rome.
