Description

Wherever you go in Rome, you will encounter history. In Trastevere, this is more true than in any other corner of the city. Here, you walk on the traditional cobblestones of the "sanpietrini", but 5 meters below your feet, the residential district of ancient Rome opens up, dating back to the 2nd century B.C. You look up at the sky of Rome, so blue it looks painted, and catch a glimpse of medieval church steeples; you look ahead and come across elegant Renaissance and Baroque buildings. Every corner and every stone tells stories and tales that are centuries and sometimes millennia old. Trastevere is ancient and modern, luxurious and popular, extremely rich and spontaneous, simple and complex, utterly contradictory and breathtakingly beautiful. Let's discover it together!
