Basilica di Aquileia

Reviewed By peetajohn - Norton, United Kingdom

We knew nothing about this place and only stopped here because of the nearby campsite review. What a place this is and what history! Buy an all-inclusive ticket which gives you access to the basilica, tower and crypt. The basilca is more of a monument than a working church as only the top end is used for services. The rest has an amazing mosaic, the largest I have ver seen, with elevated platforms to walk along and view it all. It is just superb. There is also a sad WW1 graveyard behind the church with the most beautiful and poignant statue in it - very few people visited it when I was there but it was lovely. This is a must-see place - why had we never heard of it before?

Area Archeologica di Aquileia - Foro Romano

Reviewed By thomasozbun - Vicenza, Italy

We walked along the old roman road that passed through the old roman river port sided by beautiful trees and countryside. We then turned around and passed through the roman forum with some columns still standing. Further on another open air archaeological area with roman houses and oratories which were used as private altars of the local families.

Il Porto sul Natissa

Reviewed By I6024ZEandys

It's great to picture this place 2000 years ago, with all the hustle and bustle of a Roman port. The ruins are extensive and with the help of the audio guide from the tourist office and the information boards you can take yourself back in time.
