"The Villa of Nero is a historic site located in Subiaco, Italy. It was part of a much larger and more complex Roman villa that was later used by Saint Benedict. The villa is located on the right bank of the Aniene River, along the road leading to the Benedictine monasteries of Subiaco. The remains of the villa are small but still provide evidence of one of the most original and ambitious works of the Roman Empire. The villa was built by Emperor Nero in 60 AD, before he built the Domus Aurea in Rome. The structure was located in a rural area along the Aniene river and was characterized by three artificial lakes, the Simbruina Stagna, which were created by three dams on the river. The lakes were designed to integrate with the surrounding natural environment and modify it in ways unthinkable for that time. The remains of the villa are a testimony to its grandeur and magnificence".

Among the many things that the Romans knew how to do well, there is also the ability to know how to enjoy the natural wonders of their territory. This summer residence of Emperor Nero is a testament to this. Right next to the villa there is a road that descends towards the Aniene river, if you follow it for a few minutes you can reach corners of the river where you can swim immersed in an incredible natural environment.
