There lies a tiny city on the cliffs by the sea, south-east of Terracina in Italy, halfway between Rome and Naples. This is Sperlonga. Its history goes back almost 2000 years and was an ancient Roman resort.
Much of the city�s architecture is from the middle ages but after the invasion of Barabossa in 1534 many buildings were destroyed.
Sperlonga has been a secluded place, with just a few more than 3000 inhabitants, but since the road to Gaeta was built in the 1950�s, tourists have found their way in the summertime to enjoy the long beach on the west side going all the way to Terracina, and a series of short beaches and rocky cliffs on the east side towards Gaeta.
The city�s main attraction is the museum that shows the remains of Emperor Tiberius's famous summer residence, La Villa di Tiberio.
