Tips for Visiting Via Aemilia Scauri #
- Follow the line of old paving stones where modern asphalt gives way - the worn edges mark where carts once tracked.
- Visit early morning when the low sun pulls the mortar out of the stone and reveals the road's patched repairs.
- Look for house numbers and plaques in the towns along the route; municipal displays often point out visible Roman fabric.
