The Parco degli Acquedotti ("Park of the Aqueducts") is a public park to the southeast of Rome, Italy. It is part of the Appian Way Regional Park and is of approximately 240 ha.
Description
The park is named after the aqueducts that run through it. It is crossed on one side by the Aqua Felix and also contains part of the Aqua Claudia and the remains of Villa delle Vignacce[1] to the North West. A short stretch of the original Roman Via Latina can also be seen.
