How to get
You can get from Rome by bus or train. The distance of 24 kilometers is overcome very quickly. If you want to go by train, then you need to recover to one of the railway stations - Termini or the Tiburin's Old. If you want to get on the bus, you have to go to the bus station of Tiburtina, it is located near the railway station of the Old Tiburin - try not to mix it up!
Along the way, one tricky moment awaits - the station "Bani Tivoli". Do not give in to the provocation and go to the station "Tivoli", without the "Bath" (yes, I understand, the Russian tourist even in Italy from the bath to refuse quite difficult, but try). Then ask the locals where the city center is located (in Italian it sounds like Centro Citta) and head off in the specified direction. Seven minutes of walking - and voila! - you are in the center.

Eventually, became a resort town for wealthy inhabitants of Rome, and its name was transformed to Tiburi, and then to Tivoli . Later the city passed from hand to hand : from the Byzantines to the Goths, from the ready to the Pope . From the 12th to the 15th century the city was even considered relatively independent . In the 17th century, Tivoli was in Austria's possession for some time . Finally, he joined Italy, where he is now happily and lives .

At the moment, the entire collection of D'Este seems to have evaporated, almost nothing remained in the villa. However, she already has something to surprise her: curly bushes, magnificent fountains, skilful statues and the architecture of the villa itself will easily make her open with the amazement of even an experienced tourist.
Villa Adriana
This architectural structure is located 6 km from Tivoli (Via di Villa Adriana). You can get there by bus ("bus and Adrian"). The villa was a personal estate of the Roman emperor Hadrian and was built between 118 and 134 years. ad. Now, unfortunately, only the ruins remained from the former luxury of the villa, but it was once a richest building in which a large collection of ancient works was collected.
