Just blocks from Downtown Rome, this Jackson Hill is known as being an area for visitors to explore, between the winding trails, outdoors exhibits, and of course, the famed attraction known as the Labyrinth of Rome.

The Labyrinth of Rome was created in the area that was once an amphitheater built by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s.
