One of the most beautiful archaeological sites in the Roman countryside can be found between the second and third mile on the Via Appia Antica. This is the site of the Villa belonging to Emperor Maxentius. The archaeological complex consists of three main buildings: the palace, a circus and dynastic mausoleum.
