PALESTER

Continue straight and turn left at the Angle angle: Palaestra is located north of Hadrian's thermal baths. It was in this vast shaped stage divided by paved aisles that men were involved in physical exercises, such as struggle and race, before going to the baths. The palaestra is surrounded by about terrazzo columns in cipolin marble. During its construction, like the thermal baths in the 72nd century, columns supported the portico. Many of them were purchased from the Libyan tribes by French consul Claude Lemaire to be shipped to France in the th century.
