Alatri

Pre-Roman megalithic acropolis sets Alatri apart from other towns in Lazio's Frosinone province, its ancient cyclopean walls rising above a compact centre with a real café and restaurant scene. Once a city of the Hernici people, Alatri carries a substantial ancient identity alongside its everyday Italian town character, and the acropolis gives the place a strong visual presence that rewards photography.
