Anzio beach, where the alids and Nero walked

anzio

Are you planning to travel to Italy next summer? Then it is better that you think about beaches, sun and sea. A handful of kilometers from Rome is Anzio, the site where the alids landed in 1944 and one of Nero's recreational destinations. As an escape from the city it is a great destination, and if it is summer it is a destination with a beach.

It is said that Nero built on the beach a place to rest and relax, although with the fall of the Empire and in medieval times the site was in ruin. For six centuries not much happened here in Anzio until in 1944 the allied troops disembarked and a bloody and long battle took place until the army managed to march to Rome.

The coast of Anzio It is lined with eroded caves and it seems incredible to think that right here Nero walked and allied soldiers walked. On the street, beyond the beach, there are restaurants that serve fish and seafood and all have great views of the sea.

To get to Anzio you must take a train at Termini. They leave every hour and cost 7,20 euros for the round trip. From the Anzio train station you have to walk about 15 minutes to the beach or take a bus getting off at the Viale Claudio Paolini stop.
