The Roman Villa in Piazza Armerina has the best preserved Roman floor tiles (mosaics) in the world. There are 63 rooms, 42 of which have extensively designed floor tiles. Most of the villa is under cover and you can't, for obvious reasons, walk on the tile floors. They have an extensive network of connecting walkways for us tourists. If you are facinated by floor tiles, this is the place to visit in Sicily.

  • About time some one does a video about the villa romana in piazza armerina.My granparents are from from piazza armerina and i have already travellled to the villa romana with them.Greetings from Argentina

  • Thanks for the post. It is truly an amazing place.

  • This video doesn't do justice to the beauty of the mosaics which are amazing.

  • You are absolutely correct! The immensity of the tile work is astounding. Just imagine having the money to have your floors tiled in this manner. And in some rooms to make them look like rugs.
