Hadrian’s Library
-
Roman Emperor Hadrian built this sumptuous “library” (really more of a luxurious forum) in AD 131. It had a courtyard, mosaic floors, concert areas, and a small area for storing library scrolls, all surrounded by extra-fancy Corinthian columns. Following extensive excavation and restoration, part of the site is now open to the public. (see Hadrian’s Library)
