Timgad, in Algeria.

Pretty fantastic that much of it survived given that a lot of films from the early 1900 haven't even survived.

It is very cool. I have an issue of National Geographic around here somewhere that details the town. I would absolutely love to walk those streets. Thanks for sharing.

Those are actually very nice, clean ruins. I'm used to seeing cities whose modern buildings have demolished or covered over Roman ones (or Ostia (silted over) or Pompeii with half a mountain thrown on top). I wonder what about it's location didn't make it good for future habitation that would have covered it up.

Thanks for sharing. Would definitely like to visit!
