Its condition is now seriously compromised, as the structure is submerged by both dense, invasive vegetation and the soil that has slipped into it during fieldwork.\r\nReturning to the main path, you enter the Valle dell'Inferno.\r\nAlong the way, you can admire various \"natural scenes\" of the San Costanzo countryside, with sweeping views of the Adriatic Sea and the first mountains of the Apennines.\r\nBoth the Valle dei Preti and the Valle dell'Inferno embody, in addition to their landscape, nature, and agricultural aspects, the history and roots of San Costanzo.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/2144","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/destinazione"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/2144\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2146,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/2144\/revisions\/2146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomesancostanzo.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2144"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
