For most tourists, Rome’s museums imply statues and paintings. In such context the Museo delle Mura di S. Sebastiano is remarkable. There's not really a work of art in sight. In additional contrast to, say, the Vatican, here's a museum where attendants can dwarf visitors, giving one an unusual sense of having the entire spot to oneself. Still more amazingly the fundamental display is overwhelmingly the structure itself, all 18.8 km of it. Yes, the Aurelian Walls – significantly more in the event that you check the Leonine Wall, which was attached in the 10th century AD. While you can't stroll along the Aurelian Walls themselves, you can see them from a good ways. As you stroll around Rome, you will see parts of the Aurelian Walls almost anyplace you are. Over in Porta Maggiore, or Porta Pinciana, you will a few the gateways. Be that as it may, the most interesting part might be the Museo delle Mura, which is inside the towers over at Porta San Sebastiano. Different points of interest you will adore incorporate the Amphitheater Castrense, part of the Aqua Claudia Aqueduct, and the Pyramid of Cestius.
