In giro per l'Italia - Roma La Porta Magica

Difficulty: Adv-Intermediate

Italy

La Porta Alchemica, detta anche Porta Magica o Porta dei Cieli, è un monumento edificato da Massimiliano Savelli Palombara, marchese di Pietraforte, nella sua residenza, villa Palombara, sita più o meno in corrispondenza dell'odierna piazza Vittorio Emanuele. Secondo la leggenda, un pellegrino trascorse una notte nei giardini della villa alla ricerca di una misteriosa erba capace di produrre l'oro. Il mattino seguente fu visto scomparire attraverso la porta, ma lasciò dietro di sé alcune pagliuzze d'oro e una misteriosa carta piena di enigmi e simboli che il marchese cercò inutilmente di decifrare per tutta la vita, finché decise di farli incidere sulla porta di villa Palombara nella speranza che un giorno qualcuno sarebbe riuscito a comprenderli.
