East of Tripoli in Libya, lies the only place in the world where you can
view a preserved Roman city. It was one of the jewels of the Roman
empire starting during the reign of Tiberius. It was built and funded by
wealthy Romans, and the luxury of its day is clearly evident, with
grand buildings, wide boulevards, large baths, magnificent theatre and
forum, even a brothel. The Lonely Planet guide comments, “It must have
been a great place to live”.
