OSTIA ANTICA	::: << Prev ::: Thumbs ::: Next >> :::
	110 of 152. At the mouth of the River Tiber, Ostia was Rome's seaport, but due to silting the site now lies 2 miles from the sea. The site is noted for the excellent preservation of its ancient buildings, magnificent frescoes and impressive mosaics. I'm standing in front of the theatre as seen from the ancient main road.
