Cascata delle Marmore

Our first trip out is to the local waterfall, Cascata delle Marmore, originally formed by the Romans to drain the local waters of disease and eventually carved into its modern form over the centuries. It's now the largest artificial waterfall in the world and the largest of any in Europe. Tourist paths across the falls provided a pleasant cool spray against the warm humid weather. At 6pm they turn off the falls and redirect the water back into the powerstation.
