A fianco della Cattedrale si nota una piccola piazza con mura antiche perimetrali ; si scende in questa meraviglia di altri tempi e ci si ritrova in un grande spazio che oggi è quasi sotterraneo, illuminato in modo suggestivo ; si tratta di una enorme galleria a due navate che prosegue per tre lati della piazza e ci fa capire l'importanza al tempo di Roma Imperiale ; essendo da soli, all'imbrunire, si aggiunge un senso di isolamento che è difficile aver provato in altre occasioni.
Great tour guide. Wonderfully excavated and displayed.
If you are in Aosta make sure to visit. the actual visit will not take long but it is interesting to see the large chambers underground.
Very well preserved piece of architecture. It is very usefull to have an idea of the surroundings in the Roman age since it is structurally connected to the outside square and church.At the time of my visit the entrance was free and well presented.
It's underground, well lit and splendid. But trying to make sense of what it was while looking at the several interpretive information boards and maps it will take some time to figure out how this archeological site fit into the old city, what it meant and even what part of it fit within the diagrams on the info boards. If you don't read Italian or French there are some small English brochures available. The challenge is that the city has been built on top of itself several times over the millennia.
Криптопортик, представляющий собой крытую галерею в форме подковы, расположен рядом с Кафедральным собором Санта Мария Ассунта на площади Пьяцца Джованни XXIII.Странное ощущение. Меня туда провел местный житель, и я там гуляла одна - гулкое эхо от шагов. Красивое, древнее и... Почему-то там немного по себе. Однако легкий холодок в животе и чувство прикосновения к чему-то, что хранит многовековые тайны я не променяла бы ни на какую групповую экскурсию.
What surprised us was how well done the presentation of these ruins. Excellent music in background, larger than we thought. Nothing in English, we can read a bit of French which helped. The lady working the day we visited was very nice.
Accanto alla Cattedrale una scala scende ai resti dell'antico Foro romano e da lì un passaggio immette al Criptoportico sotterraneo di recente restaurato e ben illuminato, molto suggestivo. E' una struttura ampia visitabile per tre lati che circondava il Foro. La visita è libera e gratuita, non richiede molto tempo ma è di notevole interesse.
This now subterranean Roman Cryptoporticum has to be seen to be believed. It is huge!
Criptoportico e area sacra romana... Super interessante esse passeio, principalmente por termos ido depois do museu onde recebemos muitas informações complementares...
