1. The “and then Greece and the east” part was constructed hundreds of years later.

2. Somehow italy should find a way, the “The Road Most Travelled” from Morrowind Soundtrack is played all the time, when you are going this road.

3. Great pics!

4. For a moment I thought the first photo was one of those where you squint and it reveals the face of Jesus or Che Guevara or whomever.

   That aside, I’m surprised the Appian Way wasn’t already a World Heritage Site. Just look at it!

5. It’s close to my home! Great place to go cycling.

6. Beautiful. It is a good thing such treasures for Antiquity remain well protected.

7. Shot of hand moving through wheats in a field

8. When the sun shines like that, no wonder it looks like something worthy of a UNESCO world site status.

12. Stunning pictures, outstanding photography.

15. When I was in Rome the first time, I went to walk on the Via Appia. Nobody else did then.
