The summer palace of Emperor Hadrian (76 - 138 AD, emperor 117 - 138 AD)

 

Scattered through the ruins are several sculptures by Marcovinicio Carelli made 1995-2011

 

 

One girl in a school group had an alternative way to enjoy the ancient Roman statuary.

 

There is a small museum on the site with some well preserved statuary and sclupted architectural pieces.
