sutri ruins印象
-
In a small area four civilizations pile up along the centuries: Etruscan, Roman, Longboard, and Renaissance. From the open air necropolis to the Roman theatre, through the Mitreo to the cathedral. All these places can be visited and admired in less than one day. The hidden gem: the crypt under the altar of the cathedral.

Camminare su percorsi di 2000 anni fa è suggestivo e vedere altrettanti luoghi millenari è emozionante, al momento la visita al mini Colosseo è gratuita, anche la visita guidata al mitreo è gratuita, bellissimo assolutamente da vedere

Just came back from a weekend trip to Sutri, which is roughly about 1 hour by car from Rome center. Besides the old ruins of antique Roman amphitheatre, the little town has beautiful small alleys, houses and great local Tuscan food. Take a charming walk in the old town and stop for lunch. We went to a place called "La Taverna" which is a local hostaria serving home made cooking, grilled meat (grilled while you watch), delicious dishes with mushrooms, fantasctic local red housewine. All in all great value, we spent 40 Euros in two and had a great meal. The Taverna is just off the main square of the town, but I could not find it on T.A.If you have more time left over take a stop over in Nepi on your way back to Rome, and see the old Roman acqueducts and explore the beautiful waterfall which is in the town, but rather hidden , you can ask the locals to show you " la cascata" and they will be happy to help you find it .

The park containing the Sutri Ruins is well developed and makes a fascinating stop. The ruins are easily reached and well maintained. Christmas time offers a view into the Holiday experience with costumed players portraying medieval life as well as the Christmas story. A nice family experience.

In many places, visiting Etruscan necropolises means scrambling up hillsides, often through tangled undergrowth. But at Sutri the caves are all on the level and can easily be visited and enjoyed by someone with walking problems.There is also a pedestrian circuit round the ruins and the amphitheatre, which is well signed and takes about 40 minutes, depending on how long you stop to look.

Liked you could see everything at your own pace. Great paths and very interesting to see, be sure to go to top of hill to see the little garden and church.

The story of this place is interesting, especially the part of how the "mini-Colosseum" was built. The area is quiet and relaxing - great for those who want to escape the Rome city tourist madness.

On our way to Rome, we made a stop at this ancient ampitheatre, and I am so glad we did. It was very pleasant to be there. It would have been nice to check out the town of Sutri, but there wasn't enough time for that.The only thing that would have made the experience better is if they didn't have seating set up for a performance. Not sure when the performance was, but it did detract from the ancient ruins experience to see a modern stage and chairs set up in the middle.

I had never heard of Sutri until I started planning a walk on the Via Francigena, and realised it was well placed on the route between Vetralla and Campagnano, but it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. We found various maps of the site on the internet, but in reality it was very easy to navigate. We entered opposite the gate to the town on the other side of the road.There was a recreational area, and behind it we could see the entrance to the Mitreo in the cliff. This had a wooden door that was firmly shut. There was, however, a helpful sign saying that it could be opened on request to the staff at the amphitheatre which was just a few minutes walk further on. We duly signed the visitors' book at the amphitheatre and were directed back to the Mitreo, which was now open. It is truly beautiful, and rather awe inspiring to be in a place of worship used so long ago. The floor is very uneven (so beware, because the temptation is to look up, not down); the wall paintings are well preserved and very beautiful. Photography is permitted provided that pictures are not taken for profit.The amphitheatre itself is also interesting, hewn out of the volcanic rock rather than built up. The size of the site is such that it didn't feel at all busy, even in high summer. The signs are very informative - it's worth pausing to read them.
