Basilica of Aquileia
Built in the 11th century in a Romanesque style, Basilica of Aquileia represents an immaculately preserved Roman Catholic church with intricate mosaic floors. The floors have been covered in transparent flexi protection so that visitors can walk along them and take in the whole masterpiece. The long, impressive structure features arched columns, an abundance of early Christian art, and a crypt decorated in frescoes. Climb to the top of the bell tower and you'll be rewarded with a stunning view over the rolling countryside.

Impressive basilica in a (now) small town full of history. It makes you realize how small one man can be compare to the amount od people who were here in old times.

I return here around three times a year. It never gets old (no pun intended). It IS magnificent and very old - amazing mosaics the likes of which will simply astound you. The scale of them can’t be described. I’ve added a very small sampling of which there are much more. It’s the oldest known Christian establishment that is mostly intact. Stunningly preserved - wonderfully displayed in its original state. Truly a must see if you are in the area.

Beautiful place located in quite a precious city in Northern Italy. The price is really worth it in order to explore the beautiful mosaics and the beauty of this place. Its quite extensive and interesting.
