Villa Borghese is one of the must-see stops on a Roman tour: a large park of 80 hectares decorated by statues and sculptures and a museum with one of the largest fashion collections in the world: presenting works of Titian, Caravaggio, Bernini and the sculptures of Canova. The area adjacent to the splendid pedestrian island of Piazza of the Popolo, the Pincio, offers a beautiful view of the Vatican.

Not far away, towards the Tevere, the Castel Sant’Angelo: one of the few monuments that for two thousand years accompany the history of Rome following its political and architectural evolution.
Piazza Navona is an attractive and well-known place in baroque, Rome with the beautiful Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi and the cupola of the Chiesa di Sant’Agnese. At less than ten minutes is found Campo de’ Fiori, one of the favorite night spots for young people with clubs and pubs that are not too expensive; during spring days, its booths with fruits, vegetables and flowers, lighten the mood with an explosion of aromas and perfumes.
From the ancient and spectacular temple of the Pantheon you may reach the via dei Fori Imperiali enjoying, in succession, the view of the Campidoglio, the Arco di Costantino and the imposing Colosseo, the ancient arena of gladiators, symbol of the power of Rome.
Bakeries, sweet shops and cantine selling good wine are part of the most genuine and truest Rome, that of the strong flafors that characterize the cooking of the trattorias of Trastevere and of the Testaccio. These are neighborhoods that celebrate the classical local dishes such as bucatini all’amatriciana, gnocchi alla romana, coda alla vaccinara and the famous saltimbocca. A special mention must be made of the puntarelle with alici and the carciofi alla giudia, far-away delicacies of the Hebrew-Roman tradition.
