Travel guide to Cerveteri
Cerveteri 4

Those interested in the Etruscans will probably know about Cerveteri but most others will not. It doesn't, however require vast historical enthusiasm to know when you are seeing something special and the Necropolis della Banditaccia shold be regarded as one of Europe's must-sees, a true city for the dead where those who had finished their mortal life could enjoy the afterlife in a 'city' built on the same principles as those for the living.

Don't be conned into walking there -there's a perfect;y good bus service and there's plenty of walking to be done at the site. To get full value allow a lot of time and take a torch with you.

The museum in the castle of the old town is well worth a visit, though probably not quite as good as the Etruscan museums at Rome and Tarquinia. The old town is small but it's pleasant for strolling and a good restful place to relax a couple of days after the fervour of Rome.

Easily reached by bus from the Metro station of Cornelia in Rome. [edit text]  [editors]
