Hadrian's Villa, Roman villa in Tivoli, Italy
The archaeological site spans 120 hectares at the foot of Tiburtine Mountains, featuring ancient Roman structures, gardens, pavilions, and thermal baths.
Emperor Hadrian commissioned this imperial residence between 118 and 138 AD to create a governmental complex outside Rome that reflected architectural elements from his travels.
The complex contains Greek and Latin libraries, a maritime theatre, and various structures that demonstrate the integration of Roman, Greek, and Egyptian architectural styles.
The archaeological park maintains a museum displaying artifacts discovered since the 1950s, including replicas of the Caryatids from the Canopus section.
The Maritime Theatre includes an artificial circular island surrounded by a water-filled moat, where Emperor Hadrian maintained his private retreat.
