Almost an hidden gem! Great location, an incredible garden. We saw an interesting exhibition by a French artist, Annette Messagger. There is a good restaurant inside the villa, with hot and cold dishes. The garden is a must visit.

This is a nice looking 16th century villa, located in the Pincio gardens, overlooking Spagna square. Unfortunately, there were no guided tours available in the villa during our visit, so we ended up appreciating it from its lovely gardens.

It looks great inside, sure and all that. However, it is almost impossible to find the entrance - you have to go through some French Consulate. I asked the staff inside how I can get inside, and she apathetically told me that 'the next tour...More

Campo Marzio
From its original role as ancient army training fields
to its present-day identity as one of the city’s most
desirable neighbourhoods, the Campo Marzio is the best
place to get lost in Rome. Gorgeous Renaissance and
Baroque palazzos line the streets, and are filled with
enticing boutiques and food shops. By day, Rome’s
best-dressed denizens criss-cross its streets in a
fashionable parade of errands, occasionally pausing to
