Anzio is a coastal town and commune in the #Lazio region of #Italy, approximately 50 kilometres south of Rome.
Known in ancient times as Antium, Anzio was a prominent settlement of the Volsci, an Italic tribe. It later became a favoured resort for Roman elites, including emperors. Emperors Caligula and Nero were born in Anzio. Nero even built a luxurious villa there, remnants of which can still be seen today. A part of these remnants have been filmed in this vlog.
Anzio is famous for its role in World War II, specifically the Battle of Anzio (January 22 - June 5, 1944). The Allied forces launched Operation Shingle, a significant amphibious assault, aiming to bypass German defences and eventually liberate Rome. The remnants from this operation representing the docking areas for military boats have also been filmed in this vlog.
This vlog also presents a couple of prices for renting or buying houses in Anzio, and some food prices from restaurants and markets as well.
