HORTI SALLUSTIANI HOST NEW YEAR'S EVE CONCERT OF OPERA E LIRICA IN ROME
Beneath the bustling heart of Rome, approximately fifteen meters below the modern-day surface, lies an invaluable treasure – the Horti Sallustiani, an oasis of tranquility and beauty that once rivaled the most opulent palaces of the Roman Empire.
Erected in the 1st century BC by Gaius Sallustius Crispus, a renowned Roman historian and senator, this monumental complex epitomized the pinnacle of engineering and architectural brilliance. The verdant residence sprawled across three expansive terraces, each adorned with lush gardens, enchanting grottoes, opulent baths, exquisite statues, and priceless works of art.
In 20 AD, the Horti Sallustiani were incorporated into the imperial domain, becoming the preferred retreat of emperors like Tiberius, Claudius, and Hadrian. Their magnificence rivaled that of the most extravagant palaces of the era, serving as a testament to the empire's power and prosperity.
Today, after centuries of neglect and plundering, the Horti Sallustiani have resurfaced thanks to meticulous archaeological excavations, offering visitors a sanctuary of serenity amidst the urban clamor. They stand not merely as an archaeological site of captivating allure but also as a testament to humanity's ingenuity. Through a masterful restoration and repurposing, the complex has been transformed into a modern and functional space, seamlessly hosting cultural events, conferences, and exhibitions. The Horti Sallustiani embody the harmonious coexistence of history and modernity, preserving the cherished memories of the past while embracing the vibrant spirit of the future. They serve as a poignant reminder of Rome's enduring legacy, a testament to the enduring power of beauty, and an inspiration for generations to come.
The wonderful Horti Sallustiani will be the setting for the Opera e Lirica New Year's Eve Concert scheduled for 31th December 2024 at 8.30 pm, don't miss this incredible event. Book now!
