Rome‘s 9th quartiere lies sandwiched between the Via Appia Antica and the Via Appia Nuova. Since the Via Latina cuts the district in half, it came to be called Appio Latino.

A brief history of the Appio Latino District in Rome

The area has much to offer for tourists in Rome, since a good few of the monuments along the Via Appia Antica (Appian Way) can be found within its borders.

Cecilia Metella’s Mausoleum, the Parco Archeologico dell’Appia Antica and the church O Domine Quo Vadis? are all located in the district.
