点评:If you have some spare time in the Marche area, the archaeological park of Urbs Salvia is a nice place to visit. It’s a sprawling 40 hectare park with a handful of ancient ruins including this theatre.
It’s free to walk through the park and see the theatre (other parts like the Criptoportico temple and the underground aqueduct have a small entry fee).
Built in 23 AD, the theatre was a central feature of Urbs Salvia. The town was founded as a Roman colony in the 2nd century BC and was a large, thriving settlement. Its theatre was one of the largest theatres in central Italy and was a sign of just how prosperous and successful the town was.
It’s located near the top of the hill, and is the first sight you come to if you walk down from the town of Urbisaglia. From here, if you stand with your back to the theatre, the the centre of the city would lie in front of you, with the the forum in the middle. Beyond that, at the bottom of the hill is the the sacred area with the remains of a temple and criptoportico and just outside the city walls was the amphitheatre.
There’s not much of the theatre left now and what is left, is largely overgrown and can only be seen at a distance from behind a tall barrier. We visited last year and the surrounding growth was still untended and had not been cut back.
We relied upon the large information board next to the site. We spent a bit of time working out the configuration of the theatre, using the diagram on the board. It took us a while and it took a bit of imagination to try to conjure up an idea of what it once looked like.
NOTE: A visit here is easily combined with a trip to the nearby Chiaravalle Abbey complex.
翻译:如果您在马尔凯地区有一些空闲时间,Urbs Salvia 考古公园是一个不错的去处。这是一个占地 40 公顷的广阔公园,拥有包括这座剧院在内的一些古代遗址。
步行穿过公园并参观剧院是免费的(其他部分如克里普托门廊寺庙和地下渡槽需要支付少量入场费)。
该剧院建于公元 23 年,是 Urbs Salvia 的中心特色。该镇于公元前 2 世纪作为罗马殖民地建立,是一个繁荣的大型定居点。它的剧院是意大利中部最大的剧院之一,也是该镇繁荣和成功的标志。
它位于山顶附近,是从乌尔比萨利亚镇步行下来看到的第一个景点。从这里开始,如果你背对剧院站立,城市的中心就在你的面前,论坛就在中间。除此之外,山脚下是神圣的区域,有寺庙和隐秘门廊的遗迹,城墙外就是圆形剧场。
现在剧院已经所剩无几,剩下的大部分都杂草丛生,只能在高高的屏障后面远处才能看到。我们去年访问过,周围的生长仍然无人照管,也没有被削减。
我们依靠网站旁边的大型信息板。我们花了一些时间使用黑板上的图表来确定剧院的配置。我们花了一段时间,并发挥了一点想象力,才试图想象出它曾经的样子。
注意:这里的游览可以轻松地与附近的基亚拉瓦莱修道院建筑群的游览结合起来。
