Roman Amphitheatre
Ruins of the Roman Amphitheatre; it is also visible from the adjacent park of the old lighthouse.
Attractive Ancona Cathedral stands on the Guasco hill overlooking the city's port and offers amazing views of Ancona and the Adriatic coast. The wooden roof of the 11th century Cathedral is actually in the shape of an upside-down boat and its most obvious feature is the 12-sided cupola. The Cathedral was built on the site of an ancient temple dedicated to Venus and you can still see some of the ruins underneath the church.
Beautiful park on the hills close to the city. You gain an amazing view over the city, the harbour and along the coastline of the Adriatic Sea. No access to the beach from here.
From the Monumento ai Caduti, you have to walk down some steps to reach the swimming area. Because the sun sets behind the cliffs, the beach is nicer in the morning.
Beautiful coastline and beaches lying at the foot of Mount Conero
