Nowadays, Ostia Antica is a large archaeological site. During ancient Rome it was one of the most thriving cities in the region thanks to its status as Rome’s harbour city.
After the collapse of the Empire, the city fell into decadence, was eventually abandoned and remained untouched and magnificently preserved for centuries.
From Basilica di san Paolo station take the Roma Lido commuter train to Ostia Antica.
The train to Ostia costs 1,50 € (like any other one-way journey).

Le Guide ai Quartieri
The area was a development plan for working class families in the 1920’s copying the British ‘Garden City’ by Ebenezer Howard, a utopian ideal where residents live in harmony with nature. The architectural style is a mix of Baroque-like ‘Barochetto’ with naturalistic botanical and animal motifs along with Medieval and Renaissance flourishes.
Legend has it the name came from a kind innkeeper known as Carlotta who fed construction workers, which led to the shortening of Garbata Ostella meaning ‘well-liked hostel’ to Garbatella.
Perfect to try the authentic local cuisine
