Our first field trip was traveling around the regions of the Castelli Romani, which translates to the castles of Rome. Ariccia, the town where we are staying is also located and considered in the region. We visited Castel Gondolfo, Frascati, Grottaferrata, Nemi, Genzano, and Rocca di Papa.
This was such an amazing trip because it was literally what we did in the first week of being here. Each town we visited in the Castelli Romani is easily accessible from our town in Ariccia either by train or a local bus system. The castles of Rome had a distinct personality and charm. Some were liked more than others by the students, but over all each place had something that left us all breathless. It was really a special opportunity to pile into our bus and be driven to each town to each specific point of interest. The weather was also on our side this day with the sun shining brightly.
