The Las Vegas of Ancient Rome

Excavated in the 1940s and 1950s, Baiae was a unique "sin city" in the Roman world that developed into the Las Vegas of the rich and powerful, from senators to emperors, for centuries. A volcanic area rich with hot mineral-thermal waters that gushed from the hillside, Baiae is a archaeological site that you can explore today. Join archaeologist Darius Arya for a walk through all of the terraces and domed structures, with exclusive drone footage of the site. It truly is a must-see site for all ancient Rome lovers!

Keep up with the adventures of Darius Arya, the archaeologist with access. History in real life!
