Foro Italico #HogsAbroad in Italy

Foro Italico Track
Foro Italico is a complex that Mussolini created to implement the Fascist regime.

Here you can find many mosaics with Fascist slogans inscribed in them, a tennis court, a swimming complex and a track.

Mussolini worked really hard on this complex in hopes to host the Olympics, which were held at the Foro Italico in 1960.

The statues surrounding the track are absolutely beautiful!
