A poco più di mezz’ora da Roma, a Tivoli, Parco Villa Gregoriana racchiude un ingente patrimonio che declina natura, storia, archeologia e artificio che qui si fondono in modo così seducente da diventare meta obbligata del Grand Tour nell’800 e il soggetto principale delle rappresentazioni pittoriche di Tivoli. Nel 1832 papa Gregorio XVI promosse una grandiosa opera di ingegneria idraulica per contenere le continue esondazioni dell’Aniene, incanalando le sue acque in un doppio traforo scavato nel monte Catillo e ingrossandole poi artificialmente dando così vita ai 120 metri di salto della nuova Cascata Grande, seconda in Italia dopo le Marmore. Compiuta l’opera, il Papa creò il Parco che porta il suo nome e che per oltre un secolo fu meta di artisti, letterati e uomini di cultura che ne raccontarono al mondo la bellezza.

There are two entrances to this horseshoe shaped park. If you go in the entrance with the temple, you will go down the steep way and come up the shallower, easier steps. If you go in the yellow entrance you will go down the shallow way and have what may be a challenge to come up. Either way, wear appropriate shoes. The steps are tall and frequent on the steep side. We saw people wearing wedges and flip flops and knew they would be very unhappy once they got to the steep part. There are lots of fountains on both sides of the gorge to refill water bottles. Park is uncrowded, and has beautiful views in both directions, and a very interesting and tragic backstory explaining why the river disappears and reappears on maps. Wish I could have seen it before!
