An atmospheric late afternoon at Ostia. The site was damp and chilly, near empty, *silent*, and bathed in a soft, raking sunlight passing between storm clouds. Dreamy. - ThreadSky

An atmospheric late afternoon at Ostia.

It's one of those sites where I truly do feel at peace. Gorgeous photo!

A favourite place - wandering Ostia is the perfect antidote to the bustle of Rome…

It’s like a mini Pompeii, but much less crowded and an easy day trip from Rome. Magical.

It's a site that really speaks to me. Indeed, I have always preferred it to Pompeii on an aesthetic level...

I saw a high school group from Scotland with several theater students spontaneously performing scenes in the amphitheatre while the rest of the group cheered wildly. It has a wonderful, relaxed openness.
