The term
The ancient Baiae, famous for the thermal nature of its territory, in Roman times it was one of the favorite holiday destinations of the aristocracy.
The Archaeological Park of Baia, which extends well 40.000 m2, has well preserved traces of structures to thermal destination, among which: the baths, improperly called temples, of Mercury, of Venus, of Dianaand Sosandra, to which we add a theater-nymphaeum, and the so-called Villa dell'Ambulatio. The latter stands on two terraces of which the superior was designed to house the domestic environment, while the lower one was constituted by an immense portico, which gives the name to the villa.
