The roots of Lazio sink into ancient Rome when the city became the center of the Roman Empire. Rome, according to legend, was founded in 753 BC and grew to become one of the largest and most influential metropolises of the ancient world. The Roman Empire dominated much of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, leaving an indelible mark on Western history and culture. During the Roman Empire period, Rome became a city rich in imposing monuments such as the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and the Roman Forum. Over the centuries, Lazio experienced various dominations and invasions by peoples such as the Visigoths, the Ostrogoths, and the Lombards. However, it was during the Renaissance that the region began to culturally revive thanks to the patronage of the popes who governed the Catholic Church. Lazio saw the development of important works of art and architecture, including the gardens of Villa d'Este in Tivoli. During the unification of Italy, Rome became the capital of the new unified state. This event marked a significant turning point in the region's history and made Rome the political and cultural heart of the country. Today, in addition to the grandeur of Rome, Lazio also offers splendid coastal locations such as Gaeta and Sabaudia, charming medieval villages like Viterbo and Civita di Bagnoregio, and breathtaking landscapes such as the Circeo National Park and the Cimini Mountains. The history of Lazio is a fascinating interweaving of ancient and modern influences, a testament to its importance over the millennia. This region continues to fascinate and inspire, offering an authentic experience rich in artistic and cultural beauty.
