★★★★★Edited 2 years agoRoughly 2000 years ago the great Roman emperor Nero had his stuff sorted during 100 B.C. These ruins are the visible remains of his private spa and wellness. Nowadays it is a nice piece of decoration for Pisa's best food court! After cycling and strolling the entire city multiple times with the key objective to finding some fine Italian Cuisine, this Bath of Nero ruine turns out to be the ancient Pin on the map. Amidst Pizzeria Le Mura and We Love Pasta there is simply no better place in town that offers this value for money. Stop searching and surrender yourself to the 10m radius of the structure and your culinary needs as well as your holiday trip to Pisa will be completed.
