チボリのおすすめツーリングルート

ラ・ロッカ・ピアは、ラツィオ州ティヴォリの歴史的中心部に位置する、15世紀の堂々とした要塞です。1461年7月に教皇ピウス2世（ピッコローミニ、要塞の名前の由来）の命により建設が開始されたこの要塞は、戦略的な都市へのアクセスルートを軍事的に制御すること、そして特にゲルフ党とギベリン党の派閥間、およびコロンナ家とオルシーニ家の有力一族間の長期間の騒乱と内紛の後、市民に対する教皇の権威を再確認するという二重の目的を持っていました。教皇アレクサンデル6世の治世中に完成したこのプロジェクトは、唯一の歴史的資料（ヴァザーリによる）では、伝統的にフィラレーテとその弟子たちに帰属されています。

Tivoli's Rocca Pia, an imposing Renaissance fortress located in the city center, was built by Pope Pius II Piccolomini starting in 1461 to defend the city and control the population. The structure is characterized by four large circular towers of varying heights, connected by high crenellated walls. Over the course of its history, the Rocca has alternated defensive functions with those of a papal barracks and, for a long time, a prison until 1960. It is currently a tourist attraction located near Piazza Garibaldi and the Bleso amphitheater. WEBSITE: https://visittivoli.it/sito-turistico/rocca-pia/

Hadrian's Villa is a marvelous example of imperial architecture. It was built by Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century AD, reflecting his cosmopolitan spirit, such as the evocative canopic jar, inspired by the one in Alexandria, Egypt. The villa is striking for its incredible ingenuity in the use of water and its spectacular architectural beauty.

Villa d'Este is a masterpiece of engineering, architecture, and nature. This Italianate Renaissance garden has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001. The interplay of water and architecture is truly extraordinary. The villa can only be visited on foot, and it takes about a couple of hours, so it's a good idea to plan on parking your bike.
