Latina Province
Carole Roach's Italy

Latina is the southernmost of the 5 provinces in the autonomous region of Lazio, stretching along the Mediterranean coast away from Rome, almost down to Naples. Historically it was formed to a great extent by the Via Appia; we are starting to move toward southern Italy, with Greek, Byzantine, and Norman influences becoming apparent.

I have never set foot in Latina province, although I've crossed its northern fringes on a couple of trains; the raw material for this site is the travels of an Australian pen-pal, Carole Roach, who lived there for several months and took well over a thousand photos of several towns in the province. For the others, you will find yourself using mostly offsite resources.

• For the towns just listed, then, good photos, information and links to further specific sites are slowly trickling onto their own pages, above.

• For the province as a whole, see the sites listed in the navigation bar below. They often have pages on individual towns, of course.

• Finally, in the course of roaming the Web, I've happened to find some pages — in addition to whatever towns are represented, usually quite well, on the general sites in the navigation bar at the bottom of this page — for specific places I've never been to; I've collected them here. This list is almost random, by no means comprehensive:

  
  Aprilia • Cisterna di Latina • Fondi • Latina (1 • 2) • Sezze
