    The Basilica, with its 100 feet underground archaeological complex, is one of the great treasures of the world, a place where it is possible to visit and experience different levels of Rome's past like nowhere else. Going down beneath the current church, you enter a 4th-century church that contains some of the most beautiful medieval frescoes in the world, dating from the 8th to the 11th century. Going even further down, you enter the 1st-century area with its Mithraic temple and, through a narrow alleyway, a large public building, around whose foundations flow the lost waters of ancient Rome. Above the excavations is the current 12th-century Basilica, with its magnificent mosaic and frescoes from the early Renaissance.
