It is a river island and the only urban island of the River Tiber in the centre of Rome.

The Circus Maximus was back in the time a ring-shaped arena where horse races, chariot races, combats and gymnastic games took place.

Walking in the streets and alleys of Trastevere

Located in the heart of Trastevere, in front of Ponte Sisto, between Lungotevere della Farnesina and Lungotevere Raffaello Sanzio, this charming little square is dedicated to the great Roman satirical poet Carlo Alberto Salustri, better known as Trilussa.

The Basilica was probably the first official place of Christian worship in Rome. According to legend, it was commissioned by Pope Calixtus I in the 3rd century and was finished by St. Julius I in 340.

Not far from St. Peter's Basilica, at the end of Ponte Sant'Angelo, on the right bank of the Tiber rises imposing Castel Sant'Angelo.

Arguably the most famous monument in the world and a symbol of Rome's greatness, the Flavian Amphitheater, better known as the Colosseum because of the colossal bronze statue depicting Nero that stood nearby, stands in the archaeological heart of the city, and for nearly two thousand years has told an unbroken story of fascination and magnificence....

It is the largest of Rome's famous fountains. Built of travertine and Carrara marble, it was designed by Nicola Salvi and Giuseppe Pannini in 1732. It is fed by an aqueduct that has been active for more than 2,000 years and is almost 20 km long.
