The White lake of Solfatara, which is characterized by the presence of gaseous material that comes out of the bottom. In the water several small sulphurous shower heads make the water boil, but be aware that it is not hot water. On the contrary, the water is cold and the acids, the substances that come from the depths of the earth, take care of making it boil.

The suggestive landscape of the "red" lake of Solforata in the Decima Malafede Nature Reserve and the mythical Albunea, mentioned in the pages of Virgil's Aeneid (VII book, 81-89), recall the legendary events of the formation of the Latin population. This was supposed to be the sanctuary where the god Faun would appear to the Latin king to announce the arrival of Aeneas, predestined to become the husband of his daughter Lavinia and the progenitor of the Giulia family to which Caesar and the first Roman emperors would belong.

The site of the Pomezia solfatara occupies what, until the early 1800s, was a sulfur quarry. One of the lakes is particularly impressive because it appears all white, almost as if it were an expanse of milk or salt.
