Park of the Caffarella

The Park of the Caffarella is a large park in Rome, Italy, protected from development.

The Caffarella Valley (now the park) is bordered on its northern side by the Via Latina and on its southern by the Appian Way, and extending lengthways from Aurelian's Wall up to via dell'Almone.It is protected for its archaeological (for instance the Ninfeo of Egeria) and ecological value. Some of the park is farmland.
