La strada romana delle Gallie, costruita per collegare Roma alla Valle del Rodano, ha nel tratto di Donnas uno dei suoi punti più caratteristici e spettacolari, intagliata com'è nella viva roccia per una lunghezza di 221 metri. In un luogo dove, in antico, il promontorio roccioso arrivava a tuffarsi nelle acque della Dora, i Romani hanno lanciato una vera e propria sfida alla natura intagliando una roccia viva su cui hanno saputo tirare pareti perfettamente verticali e nel cui grembo hanno ricavato il sedime stradale. Emozionante ed insolita, qui la Via delle Gallie dà il meglio di sé offrendo lo spettacolo di un passaggio ad arco di 4 metri di spessore, 4 metri di altezza e quasi 3 metri di larghezza che illustra eloquentemente la mole di roccia asportata, mostrando tutta la raffinatezza di una tecnica stradale mai più raggiunta fino ai viadotti e alle gallerie moderne. Nel Medioevo servì come porta del Borgo, che veniva chiusa durante la notte; le altre difese erano naturali: da una parte la montagna e dall'altra il fiume. Una strada fondamentale, molto utilizzata nel corso dei secoli come, effettivamente, testimoniano i profondi segni lasciati dal passaggio dei carri e l'usura del piano di calpestio che, in più punti, presenta rattoppi e risarciture operate nel tempo.

Title, pdr, composition all very well cared for. Those road works are still there to testify to the engineering capabilities of that empire. Now road infrastructure collapses after a few months, often causing unforgivable bereavement. How sad! Congratulations on the photo and the instructive caption.
bye gios ;-)
