The Lazio region
For those of you who have never visited Rome then you will amazed at how much there is to see and do, while for those who have been here many times, well you know yourselves the reasons you keep coming back. But for us here is just a short list of why Rome is so special:
Ancient Roman monuments such as the Coluseum, Forum and Pantheon to name but a few.
Renaisence Rome with its many buildings, fountains, piazzza's, sculptures and museums containing priceless works of art.
Romantic Rome: watch the sun set over Rome from the Gianicolo, stroll from the Spanish Steps to the Trevi Fountain, an icecream in the shade of the Coluseum or a candle light dinner in Trastevere or Testaccio.
The Vatican City and all the other beautiful Basilicas and churches throughout the city.
And of course some people just come for the food, shopping and people watching in what is one of the most fashionable cities in the world.
Whatever you do on your stay in Rome we are sure you will have a wonderful time and remeber to throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain before you leave to ensure that you willcome back again some day!
Rome / Central Rome area
Testaccio is a lively area full of restaurants, food stores and one of the liveliest food markets in the city. It was traditionally a work class area but in recent years has become gentrified due to its excellect location close to many historic monuments and being just across the river from Trastevere.
Things to see in Testaccio
The pyramid
You don't need to go to Eygpt to see an ancient pyramid. Standing 90 feet tall, Rome's pyramid was built in 12 B.C. as a tomb for the Roman Gaius Cestius, after the Cleopatra and Mark Antony scandal brought exotic Egyptian styles into vogue. Later the pyramid was incorporated into Rome's city wall
Testaccio market
The covered market at Testaccio occupies the central area of the piazza. Lined with butchers, grocers and fishmongers, the whole central area is given over to fruit and vegetables. Very popular with local residents, it offers super-fresh, high-quality produce and reasonable prices. Much of this market's charm for visitors lies in its compact size and relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

We have really enjoyed our stay in your lovely apartment and all your recommendations for transport/parks etc. and the Bucatino & Pizza Remo were excellent. Using the 23 Bus we made to the Vatican in 20 mins - we would love to return. Many Thanks!

*******************
Very comfortable, clean and very well decorated apartment. Fitted out very well & thoroughly. Nr 23 Bus route was excellent for getting to & from the Vatican. The local market was excellent for fruit and vegi. Local restaurants where Romans eat, which we enjoyed. Recommend Bucatino, il Cantinone (You need to book @ the Bucatino !!). The Supermarket Pam near the big church opposite the park from Marmorata is very good.

What a fantastic 3 days! Saw all the main attractions and had some good Pizza and Gelato. Would recommend Remo for Pizza. Locals are lovely & apartment was so close to everything. A must d is a walk up to the nearby hill to the key hole at the top & have a look at the view of the Vatican & surrounding city. Walked everywhere, but bus, metro and train where great for coming back home. Thanks again for supplying this fantastic apartment!
