    You need to make reservations because the only entrance is via guided tours by archeologists, for groups of 25 people. Only open on Saturdays and Sundays, from 9.15 to 15.45.

    Soon after Nero’s death, the palace and grounds, encompassing 2.6 km² (c. 1 mi²), were filled with earth and built over: the Baths of Titus were already being built on part of the site in 79 AD.

    Отсюда открывается вид на Колизей с вершины холма. На ночь парк Золотого дома запирают на решетку, но при желании находится лазейки. Так что отсюда можно любоваться колизеем и днем и ночью

    Una visita interessante dal punto di vista storico ma anche archeologico per scoprire le difficoltà degli scavi. Meglio prenotare.

    Commovente il tour per il cantiere della fastosa villa di Nerone, un esempio del potere e dello sfarzo dell'imperatore. Imperdibile.

    La casa era ornata da statue predate in Grecia e in Asia minore. L'estensione approssimativa della casa era di ottanta ettari, e inglobava tutta la valle dove sorgerà poi l'anfiteatro Flavio.

    "La casa di Nerone è giusto una goccia (ma che goccia) in mezzo a quel mare profondissimo di tracce antiche che è la Roma underground"
