Aquileia

Aquileia is a very important city in my region. Is from the old roman emperor, with the local classic roman style and signs and some very nice mosaic inside the church.
Was very important for the boat traffic.
Is interesting know that now the sea is far 25 km, but at that time was a city near the Adriatic sea.




This is the most popular simbol of Roma, the wolf that gave food to Romolo and Remo, the twins brothers that fight to built Roma.

Nice pics. Aquileia is a small and quite insignificant town. In Aquileia not sightseeing place but its a archaeological site and has a UNESCO World Heritage status.Grado is a nice place for spend night. For history lover there are many places to see two museums, the famous mosaic and the outdoors sites in the basilica. For more details refer Aquileia mosaic
