Cinecittà
Cinecittà , the Italian city of cinema, is a completely self-sufficient complex nine km outside Rome with streets, squares, parks, studios, and all the technical departments needed for making movies. It was built in 1937 and covers an area of 40 hectares. There are 22 studios, 280 dressing rooms and offices, 21 make-up rooms, and a 7, 000 square meter swimming pool. Movies filmed wholly or partly at Cinecittà include "Quo vadis?" "Ben Hur", and "The Name of the Rose."
