The most unique fountain of all uses a hydraulic organ.

Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2001, the villa, with its impressive concentration of fountains, nymphaeums, grottos, water features and the water organ, is a masterpiece of Italian garden art.

The Canopus is the most famous and photographed building of Hadrian's Villa. It has a very long water basin, called Euripus and at the end is the so-called Serapeum, which was actually a spectacular summer Triclinium. The spectacular architecture, the water games, the rich marble decoration, the polychrome mosaics and the single latrine indicate that this building was part of the noble quarters frequented by the emperor. It was certainly a Triclinium intended to host sumptuous official banquets. The guests lay down on the stibadium, and in the center of the semicircle there was room for the orchestra or the actors and dancers who entertained the guests.

A splendid example of the architectural capacity of the Roman Empire. An immense villa immersed in an extraordinary garden with water features and pools scattered throughout the estate. The well-preserved remains allow us to appreciate the ingenuity of Roman architects and to understand the way of life and entertainment of the Roman nobility.

It is a challenging but absolutely wonderful path, to be followed like the ancient pilgrims, in silence and prayer...

There are no restaurant in the villa which is huge. Plan 2h for the whole tour.

The path is dedicated to Pope John Paul II who used to take walks in the little frequented areas of the Prenestini mountains. The route is not very demanding, except in the final part at the foot of the sanctuary, and crosses a wooded area of considerable interest. It is recommended to walk it especially in spring when the bottom of the wood is covered with many species of flowers and the Falconara ditch is full of water.
