Una de las visitas imprescindibles en Roma. Una inmensa villa ajardinada, llenada de arte a raudales. Destaca el precioso lago con patos y ocas, presidido por el templo de Esculapio. Llovió bastante el día que hicimos la visita y nos sorprendió la cantidad de charcos, muy grandes, que se formaron, por lo que atención al calzado si subís en un día lluvioso. Por desgracia no pudimos entrar la museo por no haber comprado entradas previamente. Lo aconsejo fuertemente.
