  • It's a little unfair to compare a Sutri. with a Matera, somewhat akin to stacking Genoa against Rome. It's apples vs oranges, or more suitably a pinapple vs plum. The regional park here is...

  • This is a fascinating place for fans of history and all things ancient. The coliseum here is much smaller than what Rome has to offer, but it is unique because it is entirely carved into the natural stone in the Etruscan tradition. You can walk along the cool dark corridor that circumnavigates the space, and let your imagination run rampant as to what it might have been like thousands of years ago. There’s also a spot where you can climb up designated steps and look down the large open grass space and get a sense of the perspective audience members had. Nearby there is the Necropolis - Etruscan tombs carved into the rock face, with small shelves that once held urns. Some of the tombs still have aesthetic detail visible. If you’ve got good shoes on there’s a trail you can explore and see even more tombs, which are far more atmospheric with the trees and shrubs growing thickly around them.
  • Wonderful archelogical area, an open-air museum. In a few squared kilomters, you have an incredibile arena diggen in the rock (that is, not build with bricks or stone), ancient etrurian graveyards and a church again entirely diggen on the rock. And you can enjoy all these wonders by walking on the nature. Really, worth visiting it!
  • Fantastic place to visit, you can see the necropolis of Etruschi and Roman.
  • The park contains dozens of ancient tombs dug in the rock, an underground temple of Mithra and an arena also dug in the rock. Exceptionally rare. Of great interest to anybody interested in ancient history.
  • Enjoyed all the churches in the area very beautiful old historical churches
