Hadrian's Vila

That was a simple villa if you compare it with the one Hadrian, one of Rome’s most powerful emperors, had built not far from Rome.

This is a map of Hadrian’s Villa. How many buildings can you identify? If the map is not clear enough you can also find the villa on Google Earth satellite maps. These are the longitude and latitude: 41º56’25.46’’N/12º46’32.58’’E.

If you need help, click on the site map.
