The Appian Way is the ideal continuation of the discourse on imperial monumentality. If the forums and palaces were proof of power within the city, the Appian Way (or Via Appia) was a demonstration of Rome's power beyond its borders, a peerless feat of engineering and propaganda.
Called by the ancients Regina Viarum (Queen of Roads), the Appian Way is more than just a route: it is an open-air museum that embodies the wealth, politics, and ambition of every Roman era. Cyclists, both Roman and otherwise, love to travel, a journey through nature and history.
