Here's an improved and expanded version of your review: --- Ostia Antica is conveniently located close to Rome and is easily accessible by train at an affordable price. I highly recommend visiting if you're looking to escape the crowds and the hectic atmosphere of the Forum Romanum in the city center. Be prepared to spend a good part of your day here, as the ancient park is quite expansive, offering plenty to explore. The well-preserved ruins provide a fascinating glimpse into Roman history, and the highlight of the visit is undoubtedly the theater, which is remarkably well-preserved and gives a real sense of the grandeur of ancient performances. Overall, Ostia Antica offers a serene and enriching experience, perfect for those who enjoy history and want to see more of Rome's ancient past in a quieter, more relaxed setting.

I'm going to be reviewing all of Ostia Antics because there doesn't seem to be one landmark for it on Google Maps. The theatre is but one part of the ancient city, which used to be the port of Rome where sea ships would dock and tranship their goods to barges which would take them up the Tiber to Rome. The ruins are massive in area, I spent 6 hours there, and vary from almost totally destroyed to surprisingly well preserved. Getting there is pretty easy from Rome, the metro stops at Ostia Antica station and only costs €1.50 each way. It gives a good look into what Ancient Roman life was like, plenty of houses where it is easy to imagine people living there. Anyway, I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys wandering ancient ruins

An excellent archeological site, once a full vibrant/active city by the port near by Rome is ruined and abundant now. This is a kind of nearby place from Rome, may take an hour max to go and transportation is very cheap, one way €1.50 (Metro) is enough to go to this extra ordinary place. People are crazy to go to Pompeii but this is far way from Rome, may take 4 hours around, minimum €80.00 (around) however kind of similar experience you may have by visiting Ostia Antica. There is a museum inside, very good collection, a must go place, souvenir shop and a good restaurant, bit expensive but good portion and quality food. Entrance fee to the is site is around €10.00 per person, I think. I loved it, a place to be recommended.

Great for a quick 1-day get away from the busy Roman sites filled with tourist ( you will need a whole day for this. There is a lot to explore) The train ride and admition was included on the 72 hrs RomePass so it costs us nothing to get there. For some reason tourists are not rushing to Ostia Antica, but the locals are. The day we visited, I probably saw (through out the day) 20-30 tourists and 4 or 5 middle school groups (about 15-20) of students. You may want to bring snacks and water because, like us, there was just a lot to explore and no time to go looking for food.

A must see and you can go by metro. Just get out at Ostia Antica. And careful google maps tells you to get out of the station to get your connection to the Ostia line but the connection is inside the station. The place is much bigger than Pompei so wesr good shoes! Take a big bottle of water. There are fountains but not enough and I couldn't find the cafe and I wasn't the only one. Luckily lots of shady places to rest. The visit will last 3 good hours in my opinion.

If you can get out of Rome and train to this ruined city you won't regret it. It's an entire city ruins, the port city Rome. There is not much shade so try go on a day that is not too hot if you can. There is a place for food once you get it that has very good quality food. The cost to get in is £10 per person which is very reasonable. Make sure you bring a bag and bottle of water because you will need at minimum 2 hours to get through the city ruins.
