Summary
Description
For those who have gazed at ancient Romantic artworks and fantasized about entering them, a visit to Parco Villa Gregoriana offers a similar experience. Appreciate magnificent natural scenery extremely close to Rome. Walk on simple paths, discover special forests filled with historic remains, and gaze into natural underground caverns. All of this in a park that was ordered by Pope Gregory XVI in the beginning of the 19th century!
In Tivoli, a city just thirty minutes from Rome, nature thrives, history is brought to life, and without the cafés and people engrossed in their smartphones, you could easily imagine yourself in the 19th century.
Following the establishment of the park, it rapidly rose in popularity as a sought-after spot for artists, writers, and 'persons of refinement', all of whom found inspiration in its charm and depicted it in their creations.
Admire Cascata Grande, which is the second tallest waterfall in Italy. Take in the scents of the trees and flowers during a nature hike, and envision the grand villa of the Roman Consul Manlius Vopiscus, now in ruins. This lavish home was a popular meeting place for the Roman poet Horace.
Disconnect and reconnect with nature. There are plenty of inspiring things here to motivate you.
