La Strada Romana delle Gallie è un luogo di grande suggestione , in cui si respira la storia . Situata all'uscita del borgo di Donnas (Val d'Aosta) , è un tratto di strada romana , lungo poco più di duecento metri e largo cinque , giunto sino a noi dalla sua costruzione , datata intorno al primo secolo a. C. , e destinata a permettere alle Legioni romane l'accesso alla Valle del Rodano. Se ne può ammirare l'arco , intagliato nella roccia come del resto parte della stessa strada , la colonna miliare (o Millario) , in cui si può leggere ancora XXXVI (miglia) la distanza , di crca 50 km , da Augusta Praetoria (Aosta). Nel medio evo fu utilizzata come porta del borgo , che veniva chiusa durante la notte. Fa un certo effetto calpestare queste pietre , testimonianza tangibile della maestria e genio dei romani nella costruzione delle strade , ossatura importantissima dell'Impero che ne consentì l'esistenza e l'espansione . Sono chiaramente visibili le "rotaie" incise nella roccia dalle migliaia e migliaia di carri che nel corso dei secoli transitarono colà e , con un po' di fantasia , par quasi di vedere i soldati romani sfilare in lunghissime schiere , con i cavalieri e le salmerie , affrontando a piedi o a cavallo tragitti di centinaia di chilometri che li avrebbero portati a nuove guerre ai confini dell'Impero , in una epopea per noi , uomini del terzo millennio, quasi inconcepibile .

Magnificently resumed, this is among the most beautiful vestiges of the Roman way in Valle d'Aosta. Exciting. :-)

Beautiful composition and interesting BN tones. I like the point of view. As you know I do not really like the particular frames, but in general the shot is well done ;-)

Always welcome Federico and always very welcome your judgment.
I will tell you, at first I remained in doubt with the color, but in fact in b / w it seems to me to have a greater impact, considering the subject.
Thank you for visiting and commenting, a very dear greeting and a happy start to the week to you.

Dear Carlo, Stefano and Gianfranco I am honored by your attention and happy with the beautiful words dedicated to me.
In fact, where there is the possibility, it is a site to visit:
the emotion of "breathing history" is real and engaging; in the area, moreover, there is no shortage of trattorias and typical restaurants to enjoy the rich Aosta Valley cuisine and the exquisite local DOC wine.
A hug and the wish for a happy day to you.
See you soon!
Leonardo

Mat and Agata, honored by your very welcome attention and comments, I am very pleased you have appreciated the image and the summary caption: it seems right to briefly illustrate these perhaps little-known corners of our beautiful Italy and their history, often so fascinating.
A hug and the wish for a happy evening to you.
